Massive traffic accident on the I-15, a truck carrying lithium batteries this morning. Northbound I-15 is closed (and jammed beyond jammed). #I15 #Barstow

Wow, the Mojave Desert is a HUGE mess. Good thing it's dark now, that would be brutal during the day. #mojave #trafficjam

Oh wow, we have ANOTHER "off the road" incident of frustrated drivers going off into the desert, misled by Google/Apple/Waze maybe?!?! 4wd!!! "100s of vehicles all over the place" 🤯 #trafficjam #I40 #mojave #mapquested

Darn, we have yesterday's traffic there, but not today. Will check another satellite. Cool thing: if you are lost in the Mojave in a vehicle, you ARE VISIBLE on Sentinel-2 satellite.

Bad thing: it takes several days... maybe 4-5... for an update.

Oooh... that sucks Caltrans CCTV map showing that traffic jam out in the freaking middle of nowhere. It's hot. Nowhere to stop. Nowhere to get gas. Nowhere to get water. #mojave #i40

How's YOUR Friday Night. Be glad you're not on the I-40 in the Mojave. #Mojave #jam

Oooh. Road rage in the desert, someone pounding on the door of someone else stuck in traffic. Someone screaming and running across lanes. Semis have roadblocked I40/Kelbaker. (thinking the Semis actually might be doing some good by not pushing more people into that mess, tho). #I40 #Vegas #Mojave
