I hire someone to plow my driveway. Is there anything I should know?
Yes -- According to the Michigan Vehicle Code (Section 257.677a), a person cannot place snow, ice, or slush on any road or highway. Residents clearing their own snow, or private companies hired to do so, must keep the snow on your property.
