On Monday, slick conditions on Interstate 80 caused cars to slide and a semi truck to leave the road.
According to the police, there was one accident call after another and the volume was so high that the police were unable to respond to every accident, and in fact at one stage, the 911 dispatchers were saying that unless someone was injured in an accident, there were no police available to respond. From noon for a few hours they even stopped taking calls. Drivers in accidents with no injuries were advised to exchange information and continue with their journeys, assuming the vehicles were driveable.
It appears that some roads were better than others, but it was snowing heavily and the side streets were slick.
Even though there were many accidents, some drivers said that on the whole people were driving with caution and those from further afield in the state said that conditions were much worse in other areas.
