I saw the facebook video.
There are literally Texans in the comment section arguing that it doesn't matter how fast you drive on black ice. I guess now we know why this happened.

Do they not drop salt on roads in conditions like that?

No. Only money being spent on 35W is to expand the toll roads

they say not to get out of the vehicle... man... i would have thought long and hard about making a run for it if i knew what could have been coming from behind...

Yes. They pre-treat with a brine solution the day before. This brine supposedly stays on the road for a few days unless it rains which i don't think it did over there. After ice falls, they come back and put down more brine but there are so many highways it takes a while to get to all of them.

It’s did rain a bit before switching to frozen rain last night.

That’s what the weather channel said happened

It wasn't like there was ice everywhere and you just kept going fast.
It's crazy how many people don't understand this. Nobody is going to go well under the speed limit if there is a possibility of ice but none around. Especially on an interstate with every car flying around you.
My truck gives me an ice warning every time it's below freezing, that doesn't mean I drive everywhere that day like I'm on an ice covered surface

My question is why are locals on those overpasses if they know there will be black ice on them. It's so predicatable.

Eeesh, that’s scary. Nothing you can do but sit back and watch unfold. That white truck got smashed.
I’m not even going to make jokes about it, that’s horrible to watch.

Like I said earlier, even though we got freezing rain the highways were fine except for that one spot. So while you may have been cautious at the start of your drive when you realized there was no ice, you speed up and then boom.

Black Ice! Deadly! Sneaks up on you. Before you know it......you're dead.
Prayers for the victims and their families. Some real sorrow in DFW tonight.

frickkkk man. There are going to be more fatalities... Jesus.

The thing that kills me is that it's like watching a mass suicide happen. One by one everyone at one point is driving or has driven to their death. It's fricking tragic.
