Title:
East Chicago Icy Roads
Description:
Chicago-area drivers and pedestrians alike struggled to control their travel on the morning of December 26, 2008, after a "flash freeze" covered the area in a slick layer of ice. I shot this video at the intersection of Indianapolis Blvd. and 143rd Street in East Chicago, Indiana, between the hours of 5:00 a.m. and 8:00 a.m. Normally I shoot stills exclusively during big news events, but this was one situation where video told the story a lot better. By far my favorite subjects are the man and woman in the green car who start things off by getting stuck in the middle of the intersection. After failed requests for help from the car behind them ("Tap us!"), the driver exits the car *while it is still in drive* to throw salt under the wheels. Only in EC.
