Lights will change for police officers, fire trucks and ambulances who are responding to an emergency. A snow plow is not responding to an emergency. This is a slippery slope - should regular semis next get to change the lights since they also consume a lot of energy from a dead stop? How about hummers? What if I really have to pee, can I change the lights then?

I usually don’t pass plows, because I know that road conditions are way worse in front of them than behind.

Initially, I am in favor of Tom the Plowman’s proposal. I like it. I’ll have to think about it more though . . .
