	In wintertime snow and ice gather on top of truck trailers and accumulate in the understructure of a moving vehicle. These ice/snow aggregate stick on the vehicle and are hard to remove. The density of snows varies, it is 50-70 kg/m3 for fresh fall snow, 700-800kg/m3 for wet snow and around 910kg/m3 for ice.
