Fort Worth police are acknowledging the help of SUV owners who've been helping drivers stranded on the ice in Dallas-Fort Worth this week.

"Carnales Off Road" and the "North Texas Jeep Club" are just two of several groups of Jeep owners whose members share their love of Jeeps, often raising money for good causes.

This week, a number of members have braved the conditions to help others on the roads. Beginning Tuesday, big rigs began to get stuck on freeways like I-20. But about 30 of the Jeep owners teamed up to begin towing the rigs to safety along with other drivers both on the freeways and on the glazed over side streets.

On Wednesday, Fort Worth police tweeted "Big Thanks to local Jeep owners who helped out when vehicles were stuck and ice-olated on the roadways!"
