I rolled from Houston to El Paso today. They had every square inch of highway 10 610 410 shellac'd with de icer from Baytown to Near Junction Tx. County changed, no road prep, sheet of ice, crazy pile up. 2 hrs gone of my day. Of and on ice and idiocy to Sierra Blanca.
The East bound pile up at the 10 / 20 split is sure to make national news. Lost an hour to fog and lookey loo's there
I can honestly say, in general, I hate no place more than I hate Texas ...

I came across i20 last night and delivered on the east side of Dallas this morning. Wasn't too bad, rolled through DFW about 45 mph. Used the cruise all the way to Weatherford.
Funny all those little cities on i20 had the shakers out then I get to Fort Worth and it looks like they didn't do ####. That big hill before us-67 hadnt been plowed at all.
I'm shutting down here till tomorrow though, I don't want to mess with it empty.austinmike Thanks this. -
To everyone complaining about how useless the south generally is with the cold, Ice is a different animal than snow. Yes, they should invest in salt brine or even just traction sand, but the north can and is pretty bad at tge beginning of every season too with the first ice storm.

TxDot and ArDot have been treating the main roads for the last few days in the far northeast part of Tx and sw Arkansas. I 30 corridor as well as us 59 going south out of Texarkana. So far I haven't had any issues, but things may change this afternoon/evening.
