    What bad decision would that be?

    The driver parked somewhere and the truck got covered with snow while he was away from the truck.

    He may have made the correct decision to park the truck instead of driving through it. Now he needs to get rid of that snow before it freezes solid.

    The bad decision was deciding to drive that route during a blizzard. Good trip planning includes looking at the weather forecast where you're going.

    The other bad decision was parking his rig on the side of the highway during a winter storm that was dumping feet of snow in a single night. The snow plows buried his truck, not the snow falling. Had he pushed through 25 more miles east, he would have been in Reno with less snow and plenty of parking. Had he gone 40 miles west, he would have been out of the snow zone, again with plenty of parking. He won't have to worry about waiting for the snow to freeze solid. The state will soon tow his rig if he doesn't get it moved and it will cost his company thousands to do it.

    But does CHP make their announcement in English rather than the most common 78 languages at megafleets & produce hauling?
