We were driving home from Chicago today and all of the sudden everyone on the highway had to... stop. We were going about 70/80 mph (I think thats about 105-120 kph) and then all of the sudden everyone was stopped dead on the road. I felt the car grab onto the road and try to stay there we were stopping so fast..... is scary
But no one seemed to get hurt in all of that- it was just a really weird moment
So i'm home safe and sound, but i felt like venting some left over adrenaline. I could also tell silly wedding stories (my "cousin" got married this weekend) but i guess thats another thread
*falls asleep*

That happened to me on the 80/94. For six hours. Apparently a truck carrying reams of copy paper hit a bridge support and sheared open.
You can only imagine the mess as tons of sheets of copy paper traveling at 100-120 kph suddenly were strewn all over...
