Minnesota get their fair share of cold weather, but this winter has seen some particularly snowy and icy conditions hit the United States. That has obviously made driving a bit treacherous, as a few drivers found out to their chagrin on a highway between Forest Lake and Wyoming in Minnesota.

In just 30 seconds, there are about 15 cars that spin out of control on the slippery surface of the road, although none of them seem to be too serious.

The crashes kept the road closed for just under two hours, and as can be clearly seen in the video, there is a pretty big pileup as a result.
