You must be in Tahoe.
Our city plow drivers will lift the blade so there's no berm if you flag your driveway. Most people around here with drives that long use a ATV/Gator with a plow, or hire a plow guy.

We get lots of blowing/drifting here. So, sometimes even if they plow, the wind fills everything in. We've had drifts so high that we could walk up on top of our house.
