    Sounds like the people and the sleds are ok and that is what is most important.  The truck can be replaced.

Chevy tuff 💪 ...Glad nobody got seriously hurt. Airbags did their job. 

Gotta love the dude rear ending the sleds together at the end for more unnecessary damage 🤦‍♂️😂

75mph .....more like 85 mph if it was my guess. 

“How fast were you driving?”

”I was driving the speed limit, officer”

We get guys with 4 place trailers passing us all the time up there, we try to stay at 80. 

Just send it!  Almost stuck the landing and that should just buff out no problem.

They'll know how bad they got hurt, Monday morning after calling 📞😪 the insurance company.    

 

 

Wow that was a bad one.  I'm glad we generally drag the trailer up one time for the season, and then one time back home.  Shit can go bad real quick on an icy bridge.  We got off that road at the Skowhegan exit yesterday

Our limit is 55 :lol: get caught at 85 and they'd impound your rig for a week and pull your drivers license,,,gets worse from there lol

    Maybe a little preventive bridge maintainance might be in order ? ? ?

    Foolish masks in public, vaccine mandates . . .

    Maybe a little common sense..  Put sand on the bridges..

speed limit is 75 only north of old town. last summer headed to the county with the camper a guy goes buy me like a shot with 3 4 wheelers on a trailer just above the medway exit they were scattered al over the median . trailers will sway at certain speeds what you do next decides how much it costs you . sometimes a light tap on the trailer brake control will do it others its pour the coal to it.

ok i cant resist sand the bridges. and how long do you think that sand will stay in place? less than 5 min. i wasnt there so i cant say there was ice even if there was some unless you do something stupid. i have been plowing sanding roads for 25 + yrs . your comment i hear a lot from the imports why isnt this road perfect all the time

I like watching this option.

You Guys are all braver than me . My old man likes to tow fast as well. He will do 80+. 

Not me 70mph is just fine. The fact I drive an Old Escalade is probably another reason lol. 

Funny part is last year two different times I got passed on the Highway by some dudes towing Sleds doing 85+mph. Get off the exit few miles later,  head up the mountain and then see em stopped at the Gas station. So I still beat em to the parking lot. 🤷‍♂️😂

He thought he saw a Culver's bag on the sled in front and was hungry.

The truck and trailer were NOT on I95 when the accident happened, They were on the overpass that goes over 95 and landed on or next to I95.

I thought they were on I 95 and dropped down to the road 95 was crossing

A lot of people did...it's the other way around. I go by there all the time.

In our state I'd like to see winter speed limits on highways dropped 10mph, stop using so much salt, mandate winter tires.

I wonder how many morons that drive 80 in a 65 bitch about gas prices with regularity?  Want to use less gas and be more 'green'?  Go back to 55mph limits.  Even the libtards would have fits over that proposal, because they're also 'in a hurry'.  

Wonder how much our automobile and health insurance could be lowered? 🤔
