Automotive safety device for melting snow and ice from roadways

An automotive safety device for a vehicle having a pair of front tires and a pair of rear tires, an underside, a passenger compartment including a dashboard, and an engine electrically connected to a battery, the automotive safety device, comprising:

• a heater mounted adjacent to the engine and in electrical connection with the battery for selectively generating heated air;
• a front duct extending from the heater toward the front tires;
• a rear duct extending from the heater toward the rear tires;
• a v-shaped front diverter duct attached to the front duct and extending in between the front tires;
• a v-shaped rear diverter duct attached to the rear duct and extending between the rear tires;
• a pair of downwardly angled front heating vents that bifurcate from, and are in flow communication with, the v-shaped front diverter duct;
• a pair of downwardly angled rear heating vents that bifurcate from, and are in flow communication with, the v-shaped rear diverter duct;
• a heating grid mounted to the underside of the vehicle and between the front and rear tires, the heating grid electrically interconnected to the battery for generating radiant heat that is downwardly directed;
• a control panel located within the passenger compartment and electrically connected to the heater for the selective activation of the heater to produce heated air and for selective activation of the heating grid;
• and
• the activation of the heater and the heating grid from the control panel causing the heater to produce heated air that is conveyed through the front and rear ducts and then through the front and rear diverter ducts for dispersal through the front and rear heating vents for heating and melting ice and snow on the roadway surface upon which the vehicle is traveling concomitant with the even downward production and distribution of radiant heat from the heating grid that also heats and melts ice and snow on the roadway surface.
