Couple years ago was sitting behind a car at a red light and happened to look in my rear view mirror. Saw a car barreling towards me and didn't look like it was going to stop. I knew I was fucked because there was no where for me to go and he was almost on top of me. For some reason he swerved  to the right then back to the left and rammed the car in front of me. No deaths but both cars were pretty fucked up. He threaded a needle to avoid me and another car in the lane to the right of me next to the car in front of me. I am not extremely religious but I thanked God that day.

Very sad.

Run that vehicle off the road into the trees away from oncoming...always.


The nose of the truck hit the left rear of that other vehicle and got tossed the other direction.  If not for that nudge, I think they would have made the ditch on the right side.

The black truck clearly wandered to the left snow ridge divider and then tried to recover very abruptly to the right - punched the rear end left driver's rear side and was sent into the opposite lane. Way I see it anyway.

Notice the drift to center.

...But see your point though hutch, not for the nudge he would have ditched right or spunout without a choice. Shouldn't have been lingering and creeping up on a blindspot in those conditions, especially in 2 lane traffic.

these videos are quite awesome.  i, sometimes, look at those be-heading videos as well.  Some serious garbage!

Gotta feel for the driver of the 18 wheeler, probably survived; looks like he tried to veer to his right to no avail, no chance.

It's kind of a bad angle.  Going that fast, it's unlikely he would have been able to do anything which would have helped.

My wife & I were going to "do it" tonight.  I showed her this video, and she got all pissed at me.  Really shook her up.  Getting intimate will now have to wait till tomorrow.

At least it was quick.  That's all you can ask for right?

That first video still blows my mind. Can't imagine what those final few seconds were like.

I have made some aggressive moves in the same conditions. Some got a little hairy. Heart stops, laser focused, scared shitless, and then you get out of it.  I will never again be so lax like that.

I sent it to a few people. Shows you what really can happen.

This one probably isn't up there...but I was walking along the sidewalk and saw this happen.

Just a suggestion...slow down, or just stay of the roads when they are that bad.  Common sense, but I guess common sense isn't so common....
