The snow is cleared pretty quickly in NYC. First they clear the emergency roads and the bigger streets. I can't speak for Nyack since I have never lived there. When it snowed earlier this year, I walked toward the subway and only a handful of cars were on the streets. It was a nice change of pace from the usual chaotic street traffic.
Most people I know depend on public transportation to get to, from, and around NYC. Even more people do when the weather becomes snowy. It's the fastest way to get around.
