These people were going to run into me and I didn't want to damage this company truck. I was white knuckled at this point and I realized I just needed to get off the road.
I remember trying to get up that hill and this little car behind me was speeding up the hill around me just to find cars in front of her. I also noticed around me that more and more people were becoming desperate and when they become desperate, they become dumb. I made the climb and came very close but just like I would run into numerous times, cars stalling out in front of me so I was unable to gain momentum. So I turned around to see if the other routes were viable options.
I still believe if I had the chance I could of made it up the hill. and I was doing pretty well and then this hill appeared with cars stalled out. and they had a huge hill and there was already cars sliding. Then the other way out was down Northridge rd. was the first road I could of turned left on and I felt the hill was going to be a tough to climb. but that is the opposite direction and I felt that was not even an option. I will let you know that there are 4 possible ways out of where I was to get to the main highway, hwy 400. If you look at a map I started from Huntcliff Village Ct. We usually work till 7:30 PM but I decided to leave a little early, so we left at 6:30 PM. I didn't receive a call from my boss to cut the crews early and no reports of the roads being terribly bad just bad traffic. So I continue to work my crew and the snow is rapidly falling from the sky. I thought it would be fairly easy (see I'm an idiot). I even drove on them at 1 PM and they had snow on them but no severe ice.
I thought maybe I would be on the roads at the worst til 10 PM. I knew the roads would be bad but I had no idea they would be this bad. The first sign of snow started approximately 10 AM. I was working on a job site in Sandy Springs, GA, a suburb of Atlanta and my hotel was at the Holiday Inn in Dunwoody which is approximately 6 miles away. I made some questionable choices and I should of taken some different routes and gotten off early. Around 2:00 PM in the Apartment Complex job site.īefore I go into detail about my experience with this atrocious even, I wanna start off by saying "I'm an idiot".
