The most severe freezing rain fell south and east of Johnson County, with towing not recommended Wednesday night in numerous areas.
The largest reported accident was on Highway 218 north of Crawfordsville. Dispatch records indicate the road was blocked by multiple vehicles, causing other drivers to use gravel roads to detour.
The National Weather Service in the Quad Cities says more freezing rain and snow are possible this weekend.
