Last night was the first time it snowed where I live. On the way I drove back from another county in my city, I saw a car pileup - about six to eight cars bumped together.
It took a long time for me to get through. The reason for the car accident is that the road on the bridge was frozen. But on the normal road, it's not frozen.

This sounds like you witnessed the accident as it occurred. If you came upon it after it had already happened, add “had”: “six to eight cars HAD bumped together.”
If this accident occurred ON a bridge, you could add this information here, too. This would help the reader to understand the subsequent sentence where you mention the bridge.

A few times you switch between present and past tense in your grammar, but this is easy to do, even for a native speaker. This was easy to read and understand. Good job!
