ABSTRACT:
An vehicle for removing and melting snow from a roadway wherein the snow is collected, transferred to a snow melting means which utilizes heat from the exhaust and cooling system to melt the snow. The vehicle includes means for restricting flow of a heat transfer fluid such that a greater force is put on the engine which will thereby generate a heat output through the exhaust and radiator cooling system. The vehicle is designed to be operated at relatively high speeds so as not to impede the flow of traffic.
