Every weekend 290 gets shut down. They need cops pulling people over
You're wrong. The eway is not shut down "every weekend". Stop trying to make this more than it is..... a bad accident. Lest we forget there are STILL slick spots outside. Duuhhhh!
Hate seeing that. Slow down folks, it's really not worth it rushing.
There was also a bad crash on I-90 near Addison. It's still freezing out and what some think is a small puddle or water condensation is actually ice and verrryyyy slippery and people don't realize it until they drive over it and end up sliding or losing control. BE CAREFUL OUT THERE!
6 hurt, 1 fatal, female reported as deceased per police radio
