I'm glad you weren't involved in that disaster. It reminds me of the bad one on I-95 in Prince William County a few years ago after a minor snowstorm in March. Add to the mix a lot of inexperienced, hurried, impatient, stupid drivers and it makes for a recipe like the one out your way.

I remember taking the Green Line from Fort Totten to College Park a few times with the two car trains, and everybody would pile on the first car, leaving the second car completely empty. I used to run for that and get a car while the morons in the front car were packed in. Unfortunately, a lot of them were the braniacs from UMD and the tourists that don't know how to spread out on a platform.
