was driving over vail pass lastnight empty.

Whatever happens on 6 in a blizzard is probably going to be better than a fire in a tunnel shutting down a major highway and freight route. Motorists would drive right into it wondering "I wonder why all that smoke is pouring out...? This has got to be interesting... AHHHHHH, FIRE!"

 

Don't I just wish! Alaskans like to ski too.

 

Well, just so the OP knows... I saw it, am OK with it, don't deny it, and apologize for (some of) my tone. My bad.

 

Good answer, but if there is any snow built up along shoulder it can suck you in. slow and steady till you are through or were you can stop.

This is what I was trying to reply to. Stay loose and breathe eventually it will become less frightening.

 

no Don't stop posting things like this read the responses talk to drivers and make your own decision on what You find most reliable. In this industry it don't seem to matter what is tossed out there we can't all agree on anything from HOS to chaining up or not, Jakes or not , best coffee whatever one answer does not fit us all.
As to work on driving skills Good to hear I talk to truckers out 30+ years say they are still learning and working on improving so don't ever give up trying to better your self and make the roads a safer place

Happy holidays

 

CDOT doesn't care about you wiping out skiers and snowmobilers....Just don't block their tunnels...
