Agreed! It also looks to this absolutely-not-a-lawyer layperson like a violation of the equal protection clause. How come taxpayers inside of motor vehicles are entitled to right-of-ways cleared at public expense, while taxpayers outside of motor vehicles are not?
Gotta quote-post this because here's an inexpensive way to #PlowSidewalksToo!
The #Buffalo News endorses municipal sidewalk snowplowing!

What it costs to #PlowSidewalksToo if you live in Rochester, NY: about $40/household per year. Your neighbor kid won't even do it that cheaply.

Yet another reason why our failure to #PlowSidewalksToo is dangerous and unjust.
Can officials stop saying "travel ban" when they mean "driving ban?"
Lots of us are perfectly capable of doing errands on foot when driving conditions are hazardous.

I marvel at the way we equate "reliable transportation" with automobile ownership. I walk to work in the winter & lemme tell you, my feet are way more reliable than a car. They never need to be towed, they do not run out of gas, they are not subject to "travel" (driving) bans or traffic jams.
