70 was a total shit show incase you were wondering, people were stuck in silverthone thanks to everyone getting sent off the highway for closures, since people can't get their head out of their ass and they just sit waiting for it to open back up in the middle of the road no one else can get from point a to b

Sounds EPICtm

Heading up Gtown hill Friday night after seeing that burned out trailer, there was a truck coming down with is rear tractor brakes billowing smoke. Got on the CB and told him about his brakes and that there was a trailer at the bottom he could park by.

Burned up tractor's going to be bigger bucks. And would suck if it was his own.

Funny that another trucker got on and said some guys never learn. CBs are good entertainment.

Roads are in good condition this morning. Loveland Pass is closed for blasting. Website, Twitter, and signs don't show it so be aware

Incoming Saturday snow day - time to take some bets!

CDOT is forecasting "very slow travel" tomorrow. There will be carnage.

It’s gonna be ugly tomorrow. Closures, and 5-15 mph Golden to Vail. Blinding snow and cars/trucks unequipped and running off the road.

People are going to blowing up CDOT's twitter because they're all going to be stuck in Silverthorne. Epic carnage for sure.

When are they going to start fining these assholes a ton more.

**wolfelot** · 02-10-2018, 05:35 PM

Saw a ~2003 Hyundai sedan going WB this am with the window rolled down and the driver with his arm out the window with some form of a brush/squeegee because his wipers were not working. Nice.

**wkd-rdr** · 02-10-2018, 06:11 PM

Eastbound up the tunnel this morning(about 8am),there were more cars spinning out than I could count. A couple with 4wd even, and the Bustang. Tires are important. Luckily traffic is light in that direction

Those new traction laws are making quite the positive improvement

I'd bet $100 no tickets nor slaps upside a head were given for improper equipment.

Pretty sure a lady passenger was slapping the man driver of this car upside the head as I passed. Got the pic while waiting for a Dodge truck in front of me (try) to get moving.
WTF? Get some tyres peoples, or just give up. Some of us have powder to sleigh.

**The SnowShow** · 02-11-2018, 10:52 PM

Whoa, crazy roll over accident tonight just east of the Lookout Mtn exit, going east bound. Took us an hour to get through from Genneesee with three lanes going down to one. Shit looked horrible.
