Westside I-5 in the central valley is bad when it’s foggy.

Again the clowns say the fog caused the accidents…following too close like usual caused it

It really is scary when you slow down to a safe speed and there are trucks passing you at 60+ MPH when there's only a few hundred feet of visibility. I just hate the idea of shutting down when it might only be a couple mile stretch of fog but you could easily get killed if you keep running.
Speeding in the fog should be a huge ticket.Another Canadian driver, mjd4277, Oxbow and 5 others Thank this. -

Here's a longer video of the crash. -
The Tooley Fog at work. Every year the same thing. I don’t miss it one bit. I remember back in the days when Willig freight lines was around, these guys would run 65-70 mph, 3,4,5 trucks in a row caravan style, they would pass me like I was sitting still in the heavy fog.

Seems like about half the population doesn’t even have the mental capacity to reach down and turn their headlights on. Another case of dumbing people down by making things automated
“My lights turn on automatically. And my lane deviation and blind spot warning alarms aren’t going off, so I must be good to go. Now back to my instagram.”RockinChair, Jed2009, Another Canadian driver and 8 others Thank this.
