If you car is shaking it is likely caused by snow packed inside one or more of your wheels which causes an imbalance that becomes evident once your speed increases. This is not uncommon and happens to all vehicles which are driven through snow drifts and snow banks.
Snow packed in the wheel wells and underbody should cause vibrations but can limit suspension travel so keep those wheelwells cleaned out while it's mushy and before it freezes hard like rock.
