These people are enjoying snowy weather while we are battling intense heat here in Africa.
The content of that video is no way near enjoyment.

But anything colder than the current heat in Nigeria is better for me, mehn. I don't often feel cold, even during cold harmattan, i can go about shirtless.

I saw this video and i wonder why the motorists were still speeding in those harsh weather conditions. Risky stuff. RIP to the dead
I watched a documentary on an incident like this but in Canada. Some Survivors of the pile up were interviewed as part of the documentary. Most gave varying reasons foremost of which were - near zero visibility. You arent even aware cars in front had stopped and blocked the road. You see them almost too late. Issue of skidding as a result of the sheet and ice and lastly, it being an interstate road used by long distance trucks and so on, you can't exactly cruise - average speed of 70mph needs to be maintained.

It was a crazy documentary and over 39 lives lost and affected more than 200 vehicles.

The ice makes the vehicles skid off so even if they apply brakes suddenly, the vehicles wouldn't just come to a stop.
Plus very poor visibility. It is clear that many of the drivers couldn't see beyond a few feet at a time.

Crazy jam there! Condolences to the Dead.

These are kind of Scenes that will be all over the Nations of the world, one of these days when JESUS appears in the sky to Rapture his Children out of here.

It's gonna be Worldwide Commotions, as pilots and those in vehicles who are Saved and washed in the Blood of JESUS will mysteriously disappear from their vehicles and planes.
I wonder the chaos that will be on earth immediately after the rapture. The car crashes, plane crashes and so many incidents leading to a great loss of lives. Thank God I won't be round to see it, I just feel for those who will.
THERE IS STILL HOPE PEOPLE, GIVE YOUR LIVES TO JESUS TO ESCAPE THIS GREAT TRAGEDY AWAITING HUMANITY.

70mph is too high in my opinion. For a weather condition that makes it hard for you to see the car in front of you. I understand your point though. I hope we don't become victims of such situation

70mph is way too high and very unsafe to drive in such condition. Anything above 30mph should be a no no in such a dangerous and a near zero visibility kind of weather.
