The snow, ice, and rain made for a slick morning commute on roadways, causing some accidents across Long Island.

Michael Gayle tells News 12 things got serious pretty quickly while heading to work this morning after his car slid on black ice right into a guard rail.

“You really underestimate how dangerous the roads are, so everyone needs to slow down; doesn't mean if you're late to work I'll have to take the necessary precautions,” says Gayle. 

Gayle says he is just thankful he did not hit another car or a person, however he was driving his wife's car.
