ISP Dist 52 is adviising that both east and westbound lanes of I-70 near the 65 milemarker (SR 267) Plainfield exit are closed. 1 St Sgt with ISP was on WIBC 93.1 News at 3:30PM saying that is could be 4-8 hours or into Friday morning before I-70 is open to traffic.

Yeah, I've been listening. What a mess! They mentioned possible fatalities but not how many. Lifelinewas sent to the crash scene. There were whiteout conditions at the time of the crash.
Edit: Fortunately, there were no fatalities. And it is a miracle there were not any!

That would be incorrect. Driving too fast for weather conditions was to blame. Thousands of drivers made it through the exact same weather just fine. |

Sorry Rdale, The Indiana State Police said on the TV with a interview with 1 ST Sgt,Rich Myers of ISP Dist 52 Indianapolis Post said that*** weather conditions were to blame at the time of the accident. White Out conditions were present at 2 PM" when the crash occured on I-70 near the 65 Milemarker SR 267. The story that W9RXR posted from The Indinapolis Star said nothing about what caused the accident.

I understand what they said, and am not saying you are lying. I am saying they used the word "blame" wrong. The problem was that people drove too fast for conditions. Accidents happen.
