I was on 95 and it was BAD!!! I had to wait 45 min to go 3 miles. The second wreck was about 7 or 8 cars right at the 168 off ramp. People not paying attention probably caused that one. You are probably right Bigcheese, some woman on a cell phone!!!!

Now who was the speeding chico that was not paying attention and was jib jabbing on the cell phone to cause this pile up
