Blinding snow from the polar vortex is being blamed for causing a massive pileup on an interstate in Michigan on Tuesday that was captured on dashcam video. The pileup of about 30 vehicles happened at about 2 p.m. near Marne, located just outside of Grand Rapids, and involved several semi-trucks and other vehicles. "The snow was coming down, the visibility was starting to get bad all at one time," Dora Jenkins, who was in the car with her children when the accident happened, told FOX17. Coffelt's truck can be seen driving through traffic before he is forced to swerve to avoid a stationary truck. The multi-vehicle crash was one of many throughout the state as road conditions deteriorated, closing hundreds of schools including Eastern Michigan University.
