Thousands of vehicles were stuck in long queues caused by heavy snow on Italy’s A22 motorway

In England, a "motorway" is what we in the US call a freeway. In Southern California, "motorway" is a designation given to some dirt roads up in the hills.

When I traveled northbound along that same route on January 1, 1962, it was a two-lane highway. It was clear and dry, but snow was piled up high on either side of it.

The last time I passed through there, in July, 1966, we saw the freeway (called Autobahn in Austria and Autostrada in Italy) being constructed next to the two-lane highway. We wished it could have been completed because it took a couple of hours to get over the border from Austria into Italy due to the traffic.

Calling all gorons! ❄️☃⛷🏂🎿⛸ I-80 in the Sierras is looking REAL dicey the next couple of days. Even looking at substantial white fluffy in Reno through Tuesday morning.

Brenner Autobahn.
Drove that road 40 years ago in a crazy fast BMW.
When you hit the tunnels at 125MPH your ears pop.
Those were the days...

An electric car with 25% left of energy will last maybe 12 hours in those conditions. A diesel car with 50% left of fuel, closer to 12 days. Gasoline car with 50% fuel, maybe 2 or 3 days (no sensible person would travel with less than half a tank of fuel in those conditions - electric cars have little choice on long trips).

So, they better learn to respond REALLY FAST if they’re going to force everyone into electric cars, or they’ll be digging out frozen bodies.
