RUTHER GLEN, Va. -- Hundreds of motorists have been stuck in the snow for more than 15 hours along a 50-mile stretch of Interstate 95 in Virginia after a crash involving six tractor-trailers, authorities said.
The Virginia Department of Transportation confirmed both directions of I-95 remained shut down between Ruther Glen, Virginia, in Caroline County and exit 152 in Dumfries,The tractor-trailer collision Monday afternoon caused no injuries, but brought traffic to a standstill along the U.S. East Coast's main north-south highway, and it became impossible to move as the snow accumulated.
“Crews will start taking people off at any available interchange to get them - for the southbound queue 143 and 140 and northbound at exit 104 and exit 110. NB is 104 and 110 is Ladysmith," VDOT tweeted at 5:20 a.m. Tuesday.

It's Virginia, I'm not surprised. They don't need snow and ice to delay traffic for hours
