It came by itself and we will let it go away by itself is the common snow removal method in the south.
Thanks for the video. Travel safe, Dan!!!
Looking at the hood of your truck and you can see how thick the ice is. Glad you made it safely to your destination. Safe travels!
Once again super ride along with you and Baily
With all this driving in cold weather Dan, you'll be ready for running the ice roads in Northern Canada 😁
The winter roads just opened last week, a month late, because it was so warm.
Last week, down South in Winnipeg, I had a Super B-Train crack the whip, on the ice, just ahead of us. I bet the driver was getting a bit nervous.😅
Best wishes from the far North.
icy road will definitely make you sit up on the steering wheel 😮
Dan Dan the siding man!!! Doing good, keep up the good work and out of outer crazy drivers way. We were stuck here in Western Oregon/Portland last week, that ice is no joke!!
A little talk over the video. That’s definitely different. I like that play by play action you did at the end. Stay safe out here Dan.
As someone who lives in North Alabama close to I-65, I can state that the Southeast states have very little in the way of snow clearing equipment. We rarely get snow and usually it is only a couple of inches, no where close to what the Northern parts of the country receive. The snow rarely stays more than a couple of days so the states allow nature to do all the heavy lifting. I do believe the states should have sufficient equipment to keep the interstate highways open.
Here in the west motor graders do the heavy plowing. Plow trucks are just for lightweight stuff. I should think in the South they might be able to call up enough motor graders to keep things moving for the rare times it does snow.
I remember after the Blizzard of 1993, City of Birmingham purchased a whole fleet of surplus Army Humvees for use in snow/ice. They never had a reason to use them & eventually sold them as scrap years later.
@@nspro931that fine & wonderful, but as said above; it doesn’t snow or ice up enough to justify purchasing a whole fleet to sit around eleven & a half months out of the year.
@@jamessimms415 I was talking about motor graders, they are used to grade county roads and on construction projects all over the world and all year round. The problem would be the logistics of rounding up operators with contracts and keeping them fueled and operators rested but the iron should be available.
@@nspro931 It's far cheaper and safer to just close down, I too live in north Alabama. The weather we just had is honestly a once in a 10-15 year thing, outside of that you might get a 1-2 day close down or delay. It just doesn't make sense to invest in trucks / plows / stock piles of sand and salt. Remember too that people up north will often have snow tires, and or years of driving on snow and ice. People here don't even know how to drive on wet streets, nor have snow blowers and equipment to even clear out the driveway / parking lot to even leave and get on a cleared street. Most people don't even own the clothing for the extreme cold we had, this is an area that rarely sees freezing temps. And only often at night for a handful of days out of the year.
Just for some contrast the freezing weather broke on Monday here, granted we did creep over freezing on some days. And for the most part the roads were basically clear on Saturday.
But here it's Thursday And we will almost hit 70 degrees, if not for the rain and overcast would almost need the AC. Literally a 60 degree temp swing in less then a week.
So glad you made it ok. Stay safe and be careful.
Dan I have been trucking going on 37yrs and I can say nope I'm not playing in the snow an ice . If the weather man says snow I don't go. Be safe out there driver .
You guys be careful out there and you guys are the best 🙏
Gotta love winter driving...glad you're ok and were able to deliver without any issues other than the wrong day...lol
You and Bailey stay warm and stay safe out there. ❄🙂🐕
You handled all that like an absolute pro! Safe travels! 💯💯💯
WOW !!! That black ice is wicked dangerous .
In the late '70 was driving a TranstarII and was 100mi east of Indy. Freezing rain was falling and the road so icy I could turn the wheel and the difference in elevation on the two lanes (concrete) like maybe 1/4 inch kept me going straight ahead. Changing lanes was sketchy. Saw a motel at the next exit and just that little slope on the exit ramp put me in the ditch for the night. Next morning there was a fleet of tow trucks just cruising up and down the hiway. I flagged one down and he setup to pull me out and as the line tightened, one of his wheel chock popped out and shot about 100ft down the road.
Monday in St. Louis and across Missouri had Freezing Rain, Treacherous and Dangerous. Lots of Tractor Trailers were Jackknifed and a few fatalities. 🙏
Seen you today in Louisville. Can't miss that bright orange truck and bright orange tshirt
Dan nice voice over. I am in S.E. Michigan and at the time of this production this area had all rain. Currently it's the 25th and still raining without the contact freeze. Thanks you for all the effort required when making your content of this channel. Safe travels
I picked up a new 5th Wheel RV about 15 years ago. The weather forecast did not mention any snow. I drove Hwy #1 through the mountains from Kelowna to Calgary. The road was snow covered most of the way. I told my friend that I likely would never drive such terrible roads again. Just east of Banff, the left lane was not even being used. We stayed in line and we were pleased to get home to Calgary in fairly good time considering the conditions. I can only imagine when you are driving your rig in freezing rain. Take care.
You lived up to your name on this video Dan. I enjoy watching a real professional drive.
Dan, you should not have been driving on ice covered roads. Driving through snow is ok, if you have tires with appropriate tread, and chains if needed. I live and drive in the northeastern US, where we see those conditions often in winter. In warmer areas, the average driver does not have the tires or the experience to drive under control on snow or ice. Even if you can maintain control, the next guy might slide under your trailer and get himself pancaked.
Hi Dan, maybe you should have a sand system like the train have when they cant get started????
No fun. You handle it well.
They need to buy some for their interstate highway syt we m.suprised that a little of that kind of equipment is not required by the emergency management system.
Should have been there in 93 and 94 it was bad especially the winter of 94
Welcome to Dan and Bailey's Mississippi snow show. 😎
enjoy your channel and everything I buy at one time or another was on a truck....thank you
l'm going to guess you said a few cuss words as you slid by that delivery entrance
I bought my wife a new truck at that Ford dealer in El Paso. That ice was terrible.
WHAT NAVIGATION ON YOUR CELL DO YOU USE ? TRUCKERS PATH OR WHAT ?
Wow. Sliding that is crazy the ice. Stay safe out there.
We went to my aunts house in Mississippi for Christmas one year. We left home in northeast Oklahoma, and it wasn't doing anything we got over in Missouri, and it started snowing. Daddy said it is probably snowing at home now to so we will keep going it will probably quit before long. It doesn't. we were in snow all the way to Tupelo, Mississippi. My aunt lived outside Tupelo a few miles. We got there, and Daddy called someone at home, and it hadn't even done anything at home.
Stay safe, and God bless.
Dan 🇺🇸
Looks like the Coeur d'alene, ID scales.
Wow thank God there was no traffic in front of you when you were sliding on that ice
Currently 113 snow ploughs!!
Question: Why do you ratchet chain on top of the load and not on the side close to the trailer?
The bit at the end was scary. Mick London
Does being loaded help on the icey roads or hinder?
Thanks for adding loading scenes

Ice work super trucker Dan
Slipeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Take it easy.
Dan, you might want to check out Tak Tracks that will fit over your boots to give traction for waking on ice.
Sorry those are Yak Tracks.
Enjoy your videos
Dicey to say the least.
Do you not have a CB Dan ??
Got chains?
Safe Travels Dan 🇺🇸
🚛💨💨💨💨
H.A.R.R.P. ???,
Yikes! 🥶🥶
Stay safe mate I would hate to drive in those conditions. All the best from over the pond.
Lucky
Stay safe Dan!
Wow Dan i'm surprised you diden't just wait out those icy roads ! Caus i know how cautious you are !! Blessings stay safe ✌🤙😁🇺🇸✝️💪
Ice Ice Baby!
I remember my dad saying to watch the tires ahead of you if they shiny it\s just wet
I was told that too.
The other thing was there is always dirt on the paved shoulder use it to get yourself to a safe place
Probably nobody has snow tires either...we just got 5/8" of freezing rain last night here in Ottawa Canada...calling for another 1/2" tonight...stay safe Dan.
WOW, tp quote my Bro -in-law (an Alabama boy) it's like greased weasel sh't.
I used too hate driving in freezing rain or freezing fog were the worst if I had to drive semi in it nowadays I would seriously consider spending the $4,000.00 and having auto chains installed on the drive axles
I-65 and I 20/ 59 elevated interchange in Birmingham was a ice rink. Big truck almost were over side onto I-20. Stay safe
Stay’in in Fla. Grew up with that kind of weather in Ohio, 60 years ago. Don’t miss it!1
Well done Dan, having driven a truck in the UK I’ve experienced some of the white stuff so gripping the steering with you! 🥶
Looks like ice. That's what we had in Mo. Stay safe scary travels.
Dan Dan the professional flat deck man. Running ice roads and running on a roads that are frozen up from rain and freezing rain are two different animals. I have done both. I think , no I know, what Dan was on was more slippery. I have skied many of the time in a tractor trailer. It’s a little scarey at first but if you have controlled your speed like Dan did it’s doable. I used to as Dan mentioned keep an eye out for the spay coming off the tires. Plus I always when running in weather that was freezing up the hiway I would do break check. It’s not that you can not run on frozen roads it’s the speed you do it at. In Canada in the winter I would run for hundreds of miles on frozen roads from freezing rain. By staying out there in really bad weather I got to hown my driving skills. Ya never learn nothing in a pickle park. But if you could handle the slippery conditions keep those wheels a turning. Thanks for posting Dan. Brought back some fond memories. Have a great and a safe day. Happy trails to you. D
MS don't have many snow plows.. MDOT before this event happen put deicer on the slow lane before it even started to sleet/snow/ice..
You were in my neck of the woods. Hello from Pontiac, Illinois.
Middle TN got about 8 inches of snow and an inch of ice last week.. not fun. Like Mississippi, my county apparently doesnt own a snow plow lol. Thanks dan be safe
Morning Dan. You're taking the route I use to go from Coffeeville Alabama to Waterloo Iowa. In the winter you're not out of the woods until you hit Cape Garado
Hi Dan , Angel Mendez from Chicago il careful out there , love all you videos ,
how it going Dan,
lot more coming your way bad weather , The second truck that was stuck out there in left lane is that one of their new electric trucks 😂😂 I'd like to see electric truck hook up to your flat bed with that load of steel and drive it in snow and ice 😂 They learn with electric trucks the more weight they put on it the battery just pissis out quicker than you take a leak in the toilet 😂 big joke with 0 emissions , For sure snow and ice I know you know you definitely got to be careful Dan ,
be safe out there take care yourselve Dan
Looks like global warming😅
Stay safe out there
I grew up in Va Beach and moved to Mass when I was 21 for work. I have lived here since then. One of the first times I had to drive inthe snow some told me, who from MA, the trick was not to start or stop fast, just go fast in between.
:)
Stay safe out there Mister 🙌🏼🙏🏼 and good thing u know what ur doing otherwise would be ugly and end on the side of the road 👏🏼🙌🏼🙏🏼
👍
I’m glad this cold snap is far east now. Time to get Truckin and making some $$. Stay safe and give Bailey a pet for me!
for a steel company you'd think they'd use stronger bans to keep the steel beams tight
That Bailey, always looking out for you Dad, man that is bad ice.
I guess they don't have Salt truck down there 🤔
That's the time to be off the road for awhile brother.
Hey Dan thanks for the video! Be careful out there driver! Are you and the truck going to be at MATS this year?
Dan thanks for the video
You stay safe out on them winter highways
Take care mate
🙏🌵🇬🇧👍
At least you did not slide off the road wow very slippery.
Well as they say it's ten o'clock somewhere. No time like the present.
Loading steel , so you do have your flip-flops on right
Wow.. Glad you’re safe .. Guess ya never know…
Wow. That. Was. Hairy. To. Watch. Stay safe. Thanks
Great channel and great camera work! Hope to see you on the road. Stay safe
Safe travels. Your little escapade in Illinois is why I stayed home the entire week. Love Miss Bailey. Give her a hug, smooches, & scratches behind each ear. Do as you’re told, she who must be obeyed.
That weather is nothin to a Michigander 🤣😂😆
Bailey needs a seat belt just in case this bad weather puts you in a situation where you have to stop fast.
Wow just WOW!! Stay safe out there. Say hi to Bailey for us😀
Just spotted you at the rest area and honked be safe driver 🙏
1st🚒
Thanks for watching
It 50 degrees today in Gary Indiana for a brief moment
Wow scary stuff sliding
Another good one Dan Be careful out there 🚛🇺🇸👍
That sliding was scary Dan, especially with all that weight on the trailer and oncoming traffic. It's not too bad on the West Coast right now, just some rain, but I know that still probably wouldn't get you out this way 😁
