Amazing Crash Video

This is so scary. I have driven many many miles on roads in this condition (but I don't tailgate, which is what the SUV driver was doing)

One time I was on I-71 in Ohio during a blizzard, and a Chevy Suburban crossed a very very wide median, came within feet of front-ending me, then veered back onto the median. They were so close I could see the driver's & passenger's faces, and I had nowhere to go! This video reminded me of that time.

Wow..it can happen at any time. One time I was driving and a truck towing a car...the car that was being towed lost a wheel, it rolled in front of me and it made me crash into this dudes backyard. Luckily no on was hurt. Drive safe, buddy.

Thanks pal. Life can be scary but at least we aren't trying to out-think a mysterious sky-daddy's intention when chance events occur!

I can understand that drivers ed does not have the ability to train teens on driving in bad conditions, but after my 1st accident from an uncontrolled skid I then went to a large empty parking lot and practiced getting into and out of skids. It helped a lot when I hit a patch of black ice on Interstate 95 in NH.
But tailgating or fast driving in those conditions is the sign of a pure blood idiot, when ever I see this I back way off and watch the fun.

I used to practice in a parking lot after the first snow of the season. I should do that again.

I love it when I'm driving in a blizzard and some nimrod zips past me then I see them in the median a mile or so later. Nobody ever stops to help them.

Yikes. I have a feeling somebody there actually found out whether there's an afterlife or not.

That's one way of looking at it!
