Well Texan the major accident on I 94, as alot of these in our area, are due to
whiteout conditions and 4 wheelers that cant figure out how to
safely maneuver out of them. Even with all the knowledge available
people will still follow to close and drive to fast for conditions.
Sad to see up here and you'd be surprised how many happen
that don't make national news. -

Distracted drivers, everybody's in a hurry, and everybody feels entitled to be first because they are important..
Not just a Texas problem, its a nationwide problem with society in general..HalpinUout and 'olhand Thank this. -
I'm not sure what is up with the TXDOT anyway...I go across I-10 a lot, when it's 3 lanes each way, the speed limit is 65, where it's 2 lanes...75 mph speed limit...not that a speed limit matters to most of the people blowing by me.

my favorite is that toll road around the east side of Austin.......85
I could be locked in at 85 or maybe just a couple more and 4 wheelers are still trying to shove me out of the way or pass me on the right if I'm in the hammer lane.. -

I can see radar on the font bumpers soon enough, similar to the ones you see on the rear bumpers for going in reverse in a lot of 4 wheelers.
