Drivers snowed-in all night as I-95 shuts down in Virginia

[levitate]

I mean. We were give ample warning on the snow storm.
fukk would you drive in that?

I get anxiety thinking about all the different emergencies that people might have being stuck on the interstate with no resources.

1. Pregnant in labor
2. Allergic reaction
3. No fuel
4. Crying hungry child
5. Migraine
6. Explosive Diarrhea
7. Engine overheating and can't keep car running.

Bolded have all happened to me. Luckily, I was in the city so I wasn't far from gas/drug store. Car overheating isn't as bad...just chill out drive moderately and you can get to an exit eventually even if you start/stop.



But listen, I know the infrastructure isn't set up to plow snow...but good lord...its January.
80% of the country cracks me the fukk up anytime there's snow on the ground. Literally slow down, pump brakes don't mash them, come off the gas in turns and keep your wheels in the grooves.
Growing up in Michigan really prepares you for driving in literally anything besides a hurricane. How has the midwest and northeast figured out that in January..it might snow. Its not like its NEVER snowed in DMV ever.

Snow storm in LA or Houston...yeah fukk that the world's coming to an end. But in VA? That's just soft and unprepared.

Hehe. Ya'll thought ya'll could escape? Your cardboard houses and construction paper roads can't survive.

WFH GANG with the 360 Windmill dunk from the free throw line.

This is why I always keep my tank filled up before going on the interstate/highway, you never know. I'm usually no less than a 1/4 tank driving through city streets, but I'll fill up if I'm taking the highway.

Driving between NC and MD, I lose my shyt in Northern VA. It's just bumper to bumper traffic and slow downs from the moment you enter the VA state line from MD all the way to Richmond. It adds like a whole hour to my trip and it only happens there. It takes the same amount of time from MD to NC as it does from NC to ATL

thats bc those fakkits can’t drive in VA.

and VA cops pull people over for going 5 mph over esp if they see md or dc tags.

I may, or may not be responsible for everything happening on the I 95. Depends on the legal penalties

2 hour drive from his house to DC?

VDOT failing again is not surprising. We got it better in MD

 

[Poetical Poltergeist]

Always important to pay attention to the forecast and if you don't have to be on the roads don't! Play it safe especially in these times. Poor people tho, I feel for them. Government needs to get in there and rescue all of them.

Not sure why a lot of these people didn't just stay home, knowing a snow storm was coming. Ol I'll gotta work snow, sleet, rain ass nikkas

All those people stuck overnight got on the road after the snow had already stopped. They assumed the roads were gonna be cleared but it all turned into ice and froze overnight so people crashed, traffic stopped moving and they got stuck

Wasnt ya'll supposed to have salt trucks after last winter??? its not even alot of snow!!!

 

[Burned Verses]

It was like 60-70 degrees from Christmas to New Years too. Bizarre weather.

Those Amazon packages are gonna be hella late.

Those Amazon packages are gonna be hella late.

That's the real tragedy in all this

What was the excuse for Friday afternoon traffic? I-95 is six lanes in some places and still hella backed up. I used to drive from south to north and I'd have back ups
