As you begin to dig out from all the snow that has fallen overnight it's important to remove all snow from your vehicle. With all the other reasons for doing so, this is numero uno. It could save your life.

Chicago Fire Department's media account on Twitter explains why you should double check your vehicle's tailpipe.

Maybe you're thinking average snowfall or drifting snow can't pack your exhaust pipe? It can. A plow could launch snow into it or you could unknowingly reverse into a low-lying snow pile. It's a safe bet to take an extra ten seconds to check your vehicle's tailpipe and clear it out if needed.
