    So glad I took the 10 to CA instead of the 40, otherwise I would of been stuck waiting like everyone else. I heard like 6 JCT trucks got creamed in that pileup.

    I went across 40, just westbound was shut down, and 4 jct trucks were involved. No life threatening injuries to our drivers I was told though.

    Yes I found a good easy spot around the back row. First I tried to blindside into the first spot I saw because I knew the place was full. I couldn't get around like I wanted to because of some illegal parked trucks and my tail swing was gonna hit the blind side truck. I got out to look and fell on the ice full heavyweight force on my ribs. I think I got up about the 9 count but still feeling it today.

    I just called it a differential lock for short because the switch itself says Inter Axle Diff. I will correct the info on my next video.

    Ouch that ice is a ####### man. I feel your pain. I'm still sprouting bruises from earlier this week sliding literally out of my icy trailer onto the pavement at Tyson. I just kind of layed there face down on the asphalt and contemplated life decisions in front of a cattle hauler.

    I feel on my ### in Snowville, Ut last week walking back to my truck with my food from the A&W next door. The only plus side (because a bunch of people saw it happen) was that I managed not to spill my drink.

    It was in my best interest not spill the drink. A large hot chocolate would not have felt to good.

    That's when you treat it like a Quarterback about to get sacked for a loss. Throw it to the fans. LOL
