Helpful snowplow driver made man’s job easier

I would like to give a shout out to the street department's crew who plowed the streets after the snowstorm Feb. 2. I am especially grateful to one driver who was clearing the street I live on around 5:30 a.m. I had started to chip away at the large pile that was left at the end of my driveway after the plow went by. Soon the snow plow was right behind me. I jumped aside and he lowered his blade and pushed that pile onto the grass and out of the way. This was one thoughtful driver and I appreciated his effort. It made clearing my driveway a lot easier.
