Lexwrecks reported that first responders were initially called to assist with a single-vehicle non-injury collision in the northbound lane. Officers found "severe ice" on a bridge and shut the area down so plows and salt trucks could tackle the problem.
Transportation officials say even if the roadways appear clear, slow down. Black ice is still a problem and when temperatures fall below 15 degrees, salt and brine become ineffective, leaving slick spots.
