The snow was so deep the driver had to shovel it off. Watch video
South Brunswick police ticketed this driver for allegedly driving with a lot of snow on the roof. (South Brunswick Police Department) SOUTH BRUNSWICK -- Many people might question how thoroughly they have to clean ice and snow off their cars to avoid $75 fines and keep in compliance with New Jersey law.
One potential benchmark: Better than this driver.
"NO it is not okay to drive your truck with this much snow on it," police said of a North Bergen truck driver who was issued four tickets on Route 32 Thursday morning -- four days after a massive snowstorm -- for a large amount of snow allegedly still on his roof.
The snow was so deep that the trucker had to walk on it and shovel it off, police said.

It nearly clipped nearby power wires, which might have sent snow cascading onto the cruiser that pulled over the driver.
