Update (1315ET): A large stretch of Interstate 95 south of the nation’s capital remained in gridlock when tractor-trailers crashed in a winter storm on Monday. Hundreds of motorists have been stranded on the highway for more than 17 hours. The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) has given no timeline on when the clusterf**k will be resolved.
CBS4 News in Miami’s Jim DeFede is one of the motorists stuck in the mess. He said, “somebody better do something because there are cars and families just trapped here,” adding that he hasn’t seen a state trooper nor tow truck in hours.
