FYI. Read the video description. It provides a few more details.
Just say no to narration
I made it out of what ended up being a 29 car pileup while being smack dab in the middle of it. In fact, it was being in the middle lane that got me out unscathed. The first crash occurred probably around 1000 feet ahead of me in the fast lane. One of the cars careened over across my lane and into the slow lane where the driver about 100 feet ahead of me slammed into it head on. I had to serve to the left sharply to avoid getting sucked into that crash. I fishtailed for a few seconds before finally regaining control, and I remember looking in the mirror and seeing total carnage erupting behind me, and the middle lane was now blocked by wreckage. Went straight home and immediately turned on the news, and sure enough, they were on the scene. Miraculously, nobody was killed, but there were some very serious, life changing injuries.
Drive much on ice and snow? Don't you have six months of winter ???
Good analysis and tips.
Get the hell off the road.
ignorance.
I'm always that nerdy guy who cautiously passes by the accident and pile ups on my spec out studded snow tires because my vehicle's after market sonar alerted about the potential hazard 10 miles ago.🥱
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂ryfyf
The dumbass just standing in the road deserves a Darwin award. Some of those vehicles look like they could easily be moved out of the road if the drivers weren't complete morons.
Bad timing by the DOT salt truck to arrive after the crash instead of salting to PREVENT crashes.
holy shit, is the guy who was ran okay?
I love watching all of the wimpy little cheap mediocre plastic Tupperware bin cars get smacked around like billiard balls 🤣
0:39 why didnt the top 2 of those vehicles drtive on to the side of the road? they are not disabled.
Wheres the full un cut vid so i can see the guy sadly get hit
What’s the problem is stupid people that can’t slow down during bad weather
Too many drivers do not look far down the road and have their eyes set at about 20 feet directly in front of their car, add a cell phone to that and you have what your seeing in the video.
Man Minnesotans suck at driving lol damn I live in Wisconsin and I thought we were bad but damn
Everybody drives like a jackazz, always on your azz, the passing lane exists for a reason!
all this happened because of slippery road surface
1:07 low iq individual
How adults get this far in life and then stand there like diots waiting to get hit by a sliding car is just abslotutley fu$*ing mind boggling to me. The world does not need more of this in the gene pool. At some point we need to cleanse the world of idiots and I guess this is one way to do that. Just… so frustrating to me how how stupid people are.
What kind of dumbass would stand inside of the road knowing he’s going to get hit? Maybe the dude looking for a quick payout and to avoid working. 😂 😂 😂
Amazes me that drivers in Snowy states still don't get it
Low IQ situation
'
better must put 4 chaintires on the vehicle that help less accident and drive slowly speedding down while icey / snowy on the ground anyday anytime anywhere
