Plowing

I just spent ten minutes watching the guy plow the driveway in front of my townhouse. He had a pickup truck, and not one of those über-pickups, with a plow. Three cars were parked on the left, none on the right (my car remains at the Firestone place for the day). It's a wonder he didn't hit any - he accelerated very quickly and came very close: I wonder if I'll make it through an entire winter unscathed.
The guy, I must say, has probably been doing this for awhile though. He would roar back in reverse, slam on the brakes, skid, and stop only a foot from the car before slamming forward. He seemed in control, yet still dangerously close to the "doing a few thousand dollars in damage" line.
