Looks like the guy in the beamer came out the worst there… Huge tear! Hate to have to replace that panel since its part of the unibody.

Anyone else notice the truck was labelled “TDOT”?

Those americans are idiots, they cant drive. They panic and lock the brakes. Its obvious you tap the brake pedal when u go into a skid.

no, most bridges ice up, since when its a warm day, it turns to water, but since there is air passing underneath, it has no warmth(ground) so bridges are very icy during cold damp weather.

Cuz the he’d have to go out in his car to the local crafts and supplies store  
and find himself a bristol board and some Sharpies to write with. :roll:

By the looks of it, it happens just after the overpass on a bridge, so  
people really can’t see much ahead of time.

I think the best the camera dude could have done was to call the cops  
or some traffic enforcer or whatever.

i dunno about you but i always have a pen and paper in my car. anyway fine bad example, but my point was he decides to go grab the camera and setup and watch people crash rather than try to help?
