Dashcam video of truck crashing into a vehicle pile up on Hwy 401

A part of Highway 401 in southwestern Ontario was closed in the wake of up 100 vehicle collisions in a very short stretch of the highway.

Dashcam footage has emerged showing how extreme the weather and visibility were during the peak of the storm on December 23.

Multiple collisions were reported across the GTA and highway closures in southwestern Ontario included parts of Hwy. 401 and Hwy. 402 in the London area, said Schmidt.

A massive multi-vehicle crash was reported between Tilbury and Colonel Talbot Road.

You don't want to be caught in this. #MiddlesexOPP media officer Cst. Jeff Hare says the 401/402 corridor is one of the worst traffic scenes he's ever seen. Today is a good day to stay home and stay safe. For road closure information, check @OPP_COMM_WR or @511ONWest. ^dr pic.twitter.com/2iKGIpkN2u
