The trick is to clear the snow from the area through which the snowplow
will approach your driveway.
That way the plow will unload before it gets to your driveway and not
push snow across your driveway, which will then turn into ice. This extra
snow moving is best done by a snowblower.

The problem with that idea is that it does not work very well in our
narrow back lane with garages on either side.
We get the same issue out front but that just fills the sidewalk
entrance. I doubt I could move enough snow to prevent the big graders
from filling my sidewalk.
The real answer from my point of view is to move it quickly. If one is
home when the grader goes by, then it is not much of a problem.
If one tries to move the snow hours later, then one has to chop bricks
of snow out of the pile. Good for making an igloo of one is into that
sort of thing I suppose.
