VIDEO: New social media account Unshoveled
People are taking to social media to call out people who don't shovel their sidewalks after a snowstorm.

People are taking to social media to call out people who don't shovel their sidewalks after a snowstorm.

It's called "Unshoveled" and these Twitter and Tumblr accounts aim to shame lazy shovelers.

People are snapping photos and calling out those who leave their sidewalks and walkways snow-covered and slippery.

The person who started the Unshoveled Sidewalks of Philly account says they were fed up with sidewalks that were left stacked with snow for weeks last year, making for dangerous conditions when walking the kids to school.

Unshoveled says they hope that by using the power of social media those responsible will start to clear those sidewalks.

And if there's a reason they physically can't, they've provided handy links to

snow removal services.
