Snow getting stuck in frame/tires

Hey Yaris friends!!

This is my first topic here and I just want to say that I’m loving the site and I'm learning so much about my Yaris!!
(You guys have awesome smilies here too!!!!)

I've had my '08, 3 Door, 1.5L Yaris since November '08 and I'm absolutely loving it! The only issue I'm running into is during the last snow storm (We got over 1'!!) there was a whole bunch of snow wedged up either in the frame or behind the wheels and at any speeds over 45mph the whole car shook violently!! I ran into the same problem when I.... backed into a snow banking back in December and had to get towed out . I fixed it last time by going to the car wash and getting the underside power washed. I guess my question is, is getting snow stuck under there unavoidable (Besides avoiding snow!) or is there something I can do/modify?
