I-55 Near Manchac,LA

I was pretty amazed at this, and it's not even winter yet. Obviously getting worse, trucking in the upper midwest, fog was a regular thing. And not warm fog either, freezing fog and I never remember anything like this. I'd like to say they got what they deserved, but many innocent people get caught up in stuff like this. It only shows how disconnected most drivers have become for whatever reason. Can't see? Hammer down, what's the worst that can happen?

 

Two things come to mind.

First is of 25 accidents only 3 trucks? Very good considering some other recent events!

Second, I can only hope the camera is making that fog seem less than it is. As far as I can tell its nothing worse than I deal with on a regular basis in the north east. It surely doesn't constitute being called super fog.

 

I just came north out of New Orleans this morning and I-55 is still closed in both directions for several miles. The detour is on the old US 51 that runs alongside it.
