so i am driving home from work at 130am and i come across a car in a big ditch around Sheridan on the 290 with cops everywhere, then just 3 exits more by the blvd. i see an suv that looked like it slid for a mile on its side till there was nothing left and 3 other vehicles including a tractor trailer and an suv pulling a boat on the shoulder. then i get passed by a Buick swerving everywhere. Did i miss the get smashed and drive memo?

Saw that on my way home from canadia around 2. My radar was solid KA for the entire length of the 290. Cops everywhere.

Passed 12 amherst cops cars parked in a side road Wherle by my apartment Friday night. Gearing up for road blocks/checkpoints it seemed. There has been a ton of cops out this weekend which is strange for being so early in the month.

The amount of major crashes on the 290 in mind blowing. This is a major problem. Eventually they will raise the speed limit
