This is footage of the snowstorm / aftermath that hit the plain states on 12/9 and 12/10/2009. The storm was at its peak overnight, shutting down I-80 and I-35 in Iowa. I got over a foot of snow at the rest area I stopped at in Nebraska and it took me about an hour to dig out of the snowdrift I was in the following morning. Over 80 accidents were reported in Iowa alone with this storm. The accidents shown in this video is just a small fraction of what I saw.

Music:

Won't Back Down - Tom Petty
Highway to Hell - AC/DC

  • THIS GUY IS PRO. :D

  • @xXFl13RXx Haha, thanks dude! There are some great truckers out here and some terrible truckers out here. I'm far from the bottom, but I'm also not even close to the top. Always learning.

    Take er' easy!

  • i like this video. The songs on it fit perfectly. This makes an old retired truck driver hungry for more.

  • @number10dinkydau Glad you enjoyed it! I've got to be honest though, I'm glad spring is about here!

  • Winter driving gives the idiots a time to shine, we just came from a trip home like that storm, blowing snow etc, great video!

  • @WesternStar4900SA Unfortunately you don't have to be an idiot to end up in the ditch. Not much you can do when there is zero traction under your tires. But I agree, the idiots tend to show themselves much more in crappy weather. Thanks for the comment and take care!

  • Love the intro music dude! Do you listen to the dance/trance/house/electronic music?

  • huh, no cop or anything blocking that exit ramp at 5:50- close to the lanes and a bit dangerous it looks like

  • The snow blowing across the road is hypnotizing. I used to live in upstate NY and I remember driving in the snow like that. Now, I live west of the Donner Summit on Rt 80. I'm not a driver, you guys are great. Safe driving... Randy
