Abstract

A new Vehicle-Mounted Snow Plowing System for improving the driveability of a vehicle in snow by clearing snow away from the intended path of the wheels of the vehicle. The inventive device includes a vehicle mount removably mounted to the front of a vehicle, and a pair of snow deflector assemblies removably mounted to the vehicle mount. The snow deflector assemblies are mounted ahead of and in line with the front wheels of the vehicle. Furthermore, the snow deflector assemblies are moveable between a lowered, operative position and a raised, stowed position.
