Trucking news and briefs for Friday, Dec. 1, 2023:
After a hard snowstorm hit Washington state's Snoqualmie Pass along I-90, the state's DOT reported approximately 30 semi trucks had spun out, briefly closing the eastbound portion of the interstate.
"Eastbound I-90 is closed at North Bend (milepost 34) to clear out approx. 30 spun out semi trucks that did not chain up," a WSDOT page posted on Friday.
"Conditions change rapidly," the account continued before linking readers to weather updates and information on chaining up.
Those 30 or so trucks must not have been stuck too badly though, as WSDOT reported all lanes open again just an hour after reporting the closure. WSDOT did not yet respond to Overdrive inquiries about the status of the drivers that spun out.
