Speaking with reporters after arriving in Washington, Kaine said he saw crews working overnight to clear the roads but called the incident "probably a good infrastructure story. Generally, we're just not as big investors and infrastructure as we should be."
The storm began with rain, which prevented Virginia transportation crews from pretreating the roadways, said Department of Transportation district engineer Marcie Parker. Trucks began to lose control and snow was falling at a rate of 2 inches per hour, she said.
