The highway had been crowded with motorists traveling during the holiday. Many of the vehicles were moving close to the posted speed of 70 mph despite dense fog that limited visibility, Carroll said.
What does that say about the intelligence of the average Texan? Or is it the "safe" feeling they get from driving the biggest SUV they can find? There's always a few idiots, so I can see a 5 or even 10 car pileup, but 150?

babtras:BronyMedic: Notice how many Semis are involved.
Those things can't stop on a dime, you know...
Obviously, which is why they're retarded for driving 70 mph when they can't see a fraction of their stopping distance.
But if other traffic *is* doing 70, it really doesn't do you a whole lot of good if you see the accident, brake to avoid it, and end up with an 18-wheeler arriving on top of your car a few seconds later, does it?
Fog is really shiatty, unpredictable, nasty stuff, especially on a flat, featureless, mind-numbing freeway, and doubly so if it's I-10 in texas, the Somalia of highway maintenance.
The two killed were crushed to death when their SUV was flattened by a Semi running over it.
Meanwhile, if you were expecting a FedEx package any time soon, you might want to check the package tracker for "unexpected delays"

No sweat. They have special trucks for emergencies like this.

I don't think they had any accidents of that magnitude on highway 130 today.
