In areas where they are used to snow the roads will be constructed in such a way that the wind blows the snow off the road surface.
I’m in MN and the roads outside of town in most areas are better than in town for this reason alone. Now you sometimes get to spots where farms or other terrain create a wind block causing the snow to create drifts in those locations. Those you have to watch out for.

Reply to LPT: If driving in a snowstorm and your GPS suggests taking a faster route, don’t do it if it takes you off the Highway. Backroads are usually last to be cleared of snow and you could get stuck! by Bradiator34
