Multi-vehicle pileup on I-44 near Halltown, MO

got my cherry popped this month with my first accident. finally made it, wont happen again thou

 

Update:1 Driver Dead.RIP
Missouri State Highway Patrol: One truck driver dead, 50 people hurt, in nearly 350 crashes

 

Does every driver cited now have a accident with death on their record?

 

This video is from that pile-up. A girl jumping out of her car right before getting hit by a truck.

My friend jumped out of the way of an 18-wheeler on the highway in MO because of the snow storm. I’m honestly amazed she’s still alive

 

Holy crap that is insane

 

Now tell me why couldn't that driver see everything going on ahead of him and stop before that happened?

 

I made it through this probably 30 minutes before this all happened. Was headed west bound on 44 into Springfield. I was in our truck check in lane when it all let loose.

There was no snow on the ground when I came through there so it had to have dumped a lot. It snowed pretty good in Springfield was starting as I pulled in but nothing like those pictures.

 

The bridge wouldn't have been iced, I had previously just gone through there. This was a freak storm that dumped a ton of snow very fast. I heard it went from no snow to white out conditions very fast.

I know at Springfield, I pulled into our truck check in building with just very light snow, but by the time I drove out and parked it was snowing harder than I'd feel safe driving in and we are talking 15 mins time.

 

Holy ****,that girl’s gonna need a drink and a change of underwear as well as a new car.
