Iced over that FedEx sled pilot could have been working every brake he had & the video would have been the same.

Put the trailer into ABS, get that Jake Brake into action...you do all you can, but 100,000 pounds GVW slides a helluva long ways on ice. A quarter mile stopping distance wouldn’t shock me in the least.

It looked like it was just rain...until they got to an elevated section associated with a bridge. That elevation also appears to have reduced the distance that could be seen and by this time even the flashing lights were well ahead.
