Why do they use those archaic snow ploughs on highways in the US?

Russians can't drive, period.

They seem to have a tunnel vision or something. I even wonder why russian cars have mirrors while no-one obviously uses them...

the old Lada's (2101 Jiguli) actually didn't have standard side mirrors (or only on driver's side)...

No, they use other cars to stop their cars

Car crashes from Russia, check this channel out (around 4 new vids per day, but it's already 13 new vids today ):

Because they get snow off the roads, and often add salt and abrasives as well.

I'm seeing two main problems with the Russian video: One, intersections are badly designed, and two, people don't seem to understand that if you're turning left, do so from the left side of the road.

Those Korean tow trucks look nice; all pimped out and that. Even tow truck drivers in my place don't do that. We have road dividers on our roads!
