Transportation department should prepare better for emergency services like this. Let people know and exit out off interstate should have more information let all the drivers know ahead
I'm surprised that more people didn't avail themselves of Google maps or a weather app on their phone or that the passenger did not check it (if present). Not even the government could forecast the speed, the amount of snow and the final conditions that occurred here. Forecasts do seem better these days, but decades ago you got better odds by flipping a coin.
im shocked virginia didnt have the state police walking up & down 95 giving out seatbelt violation tickets.virginia NEVER misses an oportunity to make a quick buck.but they do miss an opportunity to plow roads.
Virginia usually doesn’t get this much snow!! Limited on snow plows, because of this!! Every winter a different outcome!! 95 is a nightmare without snow!!
Lol, people in my county are on day 3 of no power in VA. Last year we had a stretch of 7-11 days without it, which included no running water for most because of wells. They do need to get it together. Most of us in the country though have generators and propane heat etc. But this road thing, wow. Now I have to pack a survival pack in my car too. Lmao. It's getting crazy out there.
PLEASE!!! Make sure anyone that gets towed will not have to pay to get their car!! If they are towed, it is most likely out of gas and cannot afford to get their car out. Please, please, please!
No, CHARGE the hell out of them !! Okay, now calm down. It's very likely nobody will be charged, except semi's and I'll bet some people got gas for free, at least a couple gallons. I heard a Highway Patrol officer say something like this in one video yesterday.
Hard to clear the roads when all this traffic is on it. Bottom line, if you don't have to travel wait out the storm and give crews the chance to clear them. Priorities, please
Plan the route ahead, prepare and bring things with you in a bag, have your fuel tank full the day before. We live in a world of technology with information literally at our fingertips.
I was stuck also I Left Richmond about 10 am and 9 pm I was stuck in traffic , it would have been good if they had a sign at 104 exit saying turn back and I would buy I thought it was just a short detour ended up never got to work in dc and lost a day pay , visual communication could have been better on the road way
WHY weren't emergency services rerouting traffic? They knew traffic was stopped the highway was closed. They did nothing to get food, water or blankets to those stranded.
How do you think 40+ solid miles of stranded traffic in both directions disappeared so quick? If authorities didn't redirect further oncoming traffic there would be 80+ miles of traffic right now. The emergency management and emergency services worked 24hrs in getting this unjammed and assisted so many heavy loaded semis out of their trouble, besides cars. Also the conditions last night were so bad, nobody could distribute food, water, blankets except the drivers themselves or at exit/entrance ramps, which I heard some concerned people did. You're completely wrong here.
Realize this stretch of 40 miles of roadway is in the hills and valleys of VA and the highway was encased in black ice covered with 6 inches of snow and darkness. Nobody could get anywhere, it was a skating rink uphill and downhill. Plowing doesn't remove black ice, nor does salt, it has to warm up.
How the hell are you going to survive 30 hours inside your vehicle in middle of a snowstorm in a highway... Give us some good news and tell us how they did it to survive it
I lived in my car with my 2 cats for 6 months in San Francisco. But even though I could run the heater at night as the fog would roll in, it would get too hot & I would turn it off. I had blankets, pillows, a sleeping bag and still developed bronchitis and then pnumonia from sleeping in the dampness. I eventually moved to another city, found someone to stay with and got well.

I'd would of gone into the grass n exited I wouldn't just sit there waiting. I got nice big 4x4. I'm not gonna be stuck in traffic for that long. I'd be off roading
Treated with salt or not, cold snow on warm road melts then sub zero conditions makes black ice over 40 miles and then a 6 inch blanket of snow atop that. Salt only reduces the freezing temperature of water but doesn't prevent rime ice from forming. With the steep hills and valleys of VA, it's a recipe nobody could prevent.
people aren't going to listen they will continue to be out on the roads now matter how bad so maybe the cops should start arresting people or making them pay hefty fines then maybe they will listen no excuse why anyone should be out there on the roads
[5:59] Say: O People of the Scripture! Do ye blame us for aught else than that we believe in Allah and that which is revealed unto us and that which was revealed aforetime, and because most of you are evil-livers ? [5:60] Shall I tell thee of a worse (case) than theirs for retribution with Allah ? (Worse is the case of him) whom Allah hath cursed, him on whom His wrath hath fallen and of whose sort Allah hath turned some to apes and swine, and who serveth idols. Such are in worse plight and further astray from the plain road. [5:61] When they come unto you (Muslims), they say: We believe; but they came in unbelief and they went out in the same; and Allah knoweth best what they were hiding. [5:62] And thou seest many of them vying one with another in sin and transgression and their devouring of illicit gain. Verily evil is what they do. [5:63] Why do not the rabbis and the priests forbid their evil-speaking and their devouring of illicit gain ? Verily evil is their handiwork. [5:64] The Jews say: Allah’s hand is fettered. Their hands are fettered and they are accursed for saying so. Nay, but both His hands are spread out wide in bounty. He bestoweth as He will. That which hath been revealed unto thee from thy Lord is certain to increase the contumacy and disbelief of many of them, and We have cast among them enmity and hatred till the Day of Resurrection. As often as they light a fire for war, Allah extinguisheth it. Their effort is for corruption in the land, and Allah loveth not corrupters. [5:65] If only the People of the Scripture would believe and ward off (evil), surely We should remit their sins from them and surely We should bring them into Gardens of Delight. [5:66] If they had observed the Torah and the Gospel and that which was revealed unto them from their Lord, they would surely have been nourished from above them and from beneath their feet. Among them there are people who are moderate, but many of them are of evil conduct. [5:67] O Messenger! Make known that which hath been revealed unto thee from thy Lord, for if thou do it not, thou wilt not have conveyed His message. Allah will protect thee from mankind. Lo! Allah guideth not the disbelieving folk. [5:68] Say O People of the Scripture! Ye have naught (of guidance) till ye observe the Torah and the Gospel and that which was revealed unto you from your Lord. That which is revealed unto thee (Muhammad) from thy Lord is certain to increase the contumacy and disbelief of many of them. But grieve not for the disbelieving folk. [5:69] Lo! those who believe, and those who are Jews, and Sabaeans, and Christians - Whosoever believeth in Allah and the Last Day and doeth right - there shall no fear come upon them neiither shall they grieve. [5:70] We made a covenant of old with the Children of Israel and We sent unto them messengers. As often as a messenger came unto them with that which their souls desired not (they became rebellious). Some (of them) they denied and some they slew. [5:71] They thought no harm would come of it, so they were wilfully blind and deaf. And afterward Allah turned (in mercy) toward them. Now (even after that) are many of them wilfully blind and deaf. Allah is Seer of what they do. [5:72] They surely disbelieve who say: Lo! Allah is the Messiah, son of Mary. The Messiah (himself) said: O Children of Israel, worship Allah, my Lord and your Lord. Lo! whoso ascribeth partners unto Allah, for him Allah hath forbidden paradise. His abode is the Fire. For evil-doers there will be no helpers. [5:73] They surely disbelieve who say: Lo! Allah is the third of three; when there is no God save the One God. If they desist not from so saying a painful doom will fall on those of them who disbelieve. [5:74] Will they not rather turn unto Allah and seek forgiveness of Him ? For Allah is Forgiving, Merciful. [5:75] The Messiah, son of Mary, was no other than a messenger, messengers (the like of whom) had passed away before him. And his mother was a saintly woman. And they both used to eat (earthly) food. See how We make the revelations clear for them, and see how they are turned away! [5:76] Say: Serve ye in place of Allah that which possesseth for you neither hurt nor use ? Allah it is Who is the Hearer, the Knower. [5:77] Say: O People of the Scripture! Stress not in your religion other than the truth, and follow not the vain desires of folk who erred of old and led many astray, and erred from a plain road. [5:78] Those of the Children of Israel who went astray were cursed by the tongue of David, and of Jesus, son of Mary. That was because they rebelled and used to transgress. [5:79] They restrained not one another from the wickedness they did. Verily evil was that they used to do! [5:80] Thou seest many of them making friends with those who disbelieve. Surely ill for them is that which they themselves send on before them: that Allah will be wroth with them and in the doom they will abide. [5:81] If they believed in Allah and the Prophet and that which is revealed unto him, they would not choose them for their friends. But many of them are of evil conduct. [5:82] Thou wilt find the most vehement of mankind in hostility to those who believe (to be) the Jews and the idolaters. And thou wilt find the nearest of them in affection to those who believe (to be) those who say: Lo! We are Christians. That is because there are among them priests and monks, and because they are not proud. [5:83] When they listen to that which hath been revealed unto the messengers, thou seest their eyes overflow with tears because of their recognition of the Truth. They say: Our Lord, we believe. Inscribe us as among the witnesses. [5:84] How should we not believe in Allah and that which hath come unto us of the Truth. And (how should we not) hope that our Lord will bring us in along with righteous folk ? [5:85] Allah hath rewarded them for that their saying - Gardens underneath which rivers flow, wherein they will abide for ever. That is the reward of the good. [5:86] But those who disbelieve and deny Our revelations, they are owners of hell-fire. [5:87] O ye who believe! Forbid not the good things which Allah hath made lawful for you, and transgress not, Lo! Allah loveth not transgressors. [5:88] Eat of that which Allah hath bestowed on you as food lawful and good, and keep your duty to Allah in Whom ye are believers. [5:89] Allah will not take you to task for that which is unintentional in your oaths, but He will take you to task for the oaths which ye swear in earnest. The expiation thereof is the feeding of ten of the needy with the average of that wherewith ye feed your own folk, or the clothing of them, or the liberation of a slave, and for him who findeth not (the wherewithal to do so) then a three days’ fast. This is the expiation of your oaths when ye have sworn; and keep your oaths. Thus Allah expoundeth unto you His revelations in order that ye may give thanks. [5:90] O ye who believe! Strong drink and games of chance and idols and divining arrows are only an infamy of Satan’s handiwork. Leave it aside in order that ye may succeed. [5:91] Satan seeketh only to cast among you enmity and hatred by means of strong drink and games of chance, and to turn you from remembrance of Allah and from (His) worship. Will ye then have done ? [5:92] Obey Allah and obey the messenger, and beware! But if ye turn away, then know that the duty of Our messenger is only plain conveyance (of the message).
Well they took their good old sweet time to clear the shut down !!! I can guarantee that the incoming Republican Governor would have had the whole mess straightened out in a few hours instead of an entire day !!! Hopefully I am right in stating that !!!
Completely wrong. In completely good weather on weekdays at 4pm, our nearby intrastate is bumper to bumper for two hours...every work day. Always more, if there is a wreck or stalled vehicle. How are you going to move 40+ hilly miles of tangled traffic in a packed highway both directions with absolutely no traction on black/rime ice covered in 6 inches of snow and temps below freezing? Somebody is attempting to politicize a solution, when no feasible couple hour solution is available. I'm actually amazed they cleared both sides, all semi's, all cars in horrible slick weather in such a short time.
Transportation department should prepare better for emergency services like this. Let people know and exit out off interstate should have more information let all the drivers know ahead
I'm surprised that more people didn't avail themselves of Google maps or a weather app on their phone or that the passenger did not check it (if present).
Not even the government could forecast the speed, the amount of snow and the final conditions that occurred here. Forecasts do seem better these days, but decades ago you got better odds by flipping a coin.
Nobody but the drivers there can tell us if digital road signs warned of traffic slow down.

In Illinois, when the weather gets this bad, the interstates are closed. Also, people are advised to stay home.

Treated with salt or not, cold snow on warm road melts then sub zero conditions makes black ice over 40 miles and then a 6 inch blanket of snow atop that.

How are you going to move 40+ hilly miles of tangled traffic in a packed highway both directions with absolutely no traction on black/rime ice covered in 6 inches of snow and temps below freezing? Somebody is attempting to politicize a solution, when no feasible couple hour solution is available.
I'm actually amazed they cleared both sides, all semi's, all cars in horrible slick weather in such a short time.
Maybe get some advisors from texas?
Nobody cares,people are taking everything for a joke 😒
Not if they were stuck out there. 🥶
I care!
