That was a private company that owned that road deciding to save a few hundred dollars. Semis driving 70 in icy conditions didn't help.

What’s even worse is that NTTA was always really good about keeping the roads clean so people would pay tolls on ice days. They sold to the Spanish company that now owns it and our first bad ice day in last few years had the worst wreck we have ever seen.

There was clearly some bad driving too because I use that express lane daily. Too many people that don’t understand black ice in Texas.

Might I suggest that some government regulations are a good idea?

What the hell does that matter? City of Fort Worth and Dallas / surrounding areas have always skimped on this duty. We all know the weather is wrong most the time so they gamble to keep the damn money in government instead of playing it safe.

The fact is no one gives a shit about the citizens. They care about spending dedicated road money on their pet projects instead of for us.
