Tunnels have no natural way to wash oils and rubber residue - maybe that's it?

Says in the discription that the river flowing above leaks into the tunnel and freezes. But it looks more than a few icy spots.

I don't know about the ice theory. Quite a few of them just look like people getting cut off. The ones I can't figure out are the ones crashing before they get into frame. Looks like people might be going just a tad too fast for the road. Poorly engineered cars + Vodka + bad drivers = Tunnel of Death.

He had to stop sometime - the passengers were complaining about the **** smell coming from everywhere inside the bus.
