California Winter Storm Traffic - Lake Tahoe - Donner Pass - I80 - HWY 50 -snowy wrecks

Content from I-80 from Soda Springs to Donner Pass, #california after a #winter #storm hit over the weekend. #accidents occurred all along I-80 prompting the closure of the interstate due to #blizzard conditions. The only route open to Lake Tahoe was Hwy 50 where numerous cars slid on #icy #roads making for near impossible #travel conditions due to #weather. Shots include #trucking stuck in the snow, medic seeking treatment in his own ambulance and cars sliding around. Also huge snow cuts as CalDot #snowremoval is underway with #snow #plowing using the rotary blowers on cuts as large as the massive machines.
Thanks to all of our supporters, please feel free to suggest other content in the comments.
Thanks to @JonathanPetramala for so much help on this trip. Please see his page for more content.

That first guy had chains on and he couldn't get around. Either his vehicle is bad in the snow or he can't drive.....or both. Having fun with ya 😘 all. Keep the ❄ out there please!!

    Most of the homes have a door to nowhere (2 or 3rd story). Just for winters like this one.

    Those people in the SUV’s I guess don’t think about turning around and backing up the Icy hill so the center of gravity shifts to the front wheels and reverse gear is geared lower for torque not speed

    Was stuck in Reno for 6 days when it got bad in early December. I love the snow and we need it but I won't be driving in it. I understand that some people have no choice. We carry chains but if chains are required to travel my company says stay put. Not worth the headache of going up just to get turned back and the risk of crashing isn't worth it to me either.

    What happens when all these snow melt? Where do they go?

  • @Sonoma_Coast

    In the mnts. surrounding Tahoe the melt will go into Lake Tahoe then out to the East in the Truckee River which goes into Nevada and ends up in a huge lake called Pyramid lake which is in the Great Basin. The Mountains facing West the melt heads West. Each river except one has reservoirs on them to capture water. Some is released and ends up in the Sacramento or San Jopuquin rivers which eventually go to San Francisco Bay then out to the Pacific. There are also large aqueducts and canals that transport the water to South Cal. or the Farms in the Sacramento valley or other residential users.

    If you live in the snow belt, put on the best chains you can buy or sit and spin. You spend $200.00 on fashion sneakers and $20.00 on chains for your vehicle. Great footage!

    The worst offenders appear to be the AWD sedans and such. The owners seem to think they are still safe going summer speeds.
