Yes the Comcast guy caused a traffic hazard.. but isn't it the drivers' responsibility to drive at the speed suitable to the weather condition? eg Complaining if your car rear ended the person in front because you didn't leave enough space in front of you?

Pretty sure the video will clear Comcast more than anything. Wide open road, go fast, no snow tires..
I was reading the comments on Reddit and someone said that those vehicles needed the speed in order to make it over the hill or risk getting stuck and sliding back down. It doesn't look like much of a hill to me, but indeed you do need momentum on snow/ice covered hills. They should have had signs and cones laid out over that hill and in front of the truck as well, with sign people to control traffic.
