Explanation
Drivers must stay at least 200 feet behind a snowplow with its red or amber lights on. By maintaining a safe distance, drivers allow the snowplow operator to have enough space to perform their duties effectively and safely. This also provides the driver with a clear view of the road ahead and reduces the risk of collisions or being affected by the snowplow's operations.
