Massive Wreck On I-70 Piles Up 45 Cars
The pileup on Interstate 70 involved roughly 45 vehicles with about a dozen minor injuries amid a winter storm causing over 130 crashes in central Indiana, officials said.
- On Nov. 29, a winter storm produced a chain-reaction crash involving roughly 45 vehicles on westbound Interstate 70 near the 15-mile marker about 10 miles from Terre Haute, Indiana.
- Police blamed slick, snow-covered roads and reduced visibility after slide‑offs on eastbound I-70 shortly before 10 a.m., with the National Weather Service forecasting one and four inches of snow and wind gusts up to 35 miles per hour in central Indiana.
- Cleanup crews worked for roughly six hours as westbound lanes of I-70 were shut and traffic-camera images showed vehicles scattered on and off the highway.
- Across central Indiana, authorities reported no major injuries from the pileup, though about 11 people received minor treatment, amid more than 130 crashes in 24 hours, including 18 with injuries.
- Indiana State Police urged residents to stay home and follow safety guidance: reduce speed, increase following distance, and use headlights, while Vigo County remained under a winter weather advisory until 10 a.m. Sunday.
