Pretty sure that kind of shit happens on roadways a hell of a lot more then we'll ever know!
Getting caught on camera is the more rare part. And not recovering was just plain stupid.
I've lost the backend of cars over the years way worse then that and recovered and I would think most of us on here have?
Fun in the Great White North is recovering on black ice at high speeds and seeing 5 or 6 cars in the ditch on both sides of the road as you counter steer half a dozen fishtails and all the while passing a cop standing there next to his cruiser watching you with a grin on his face, its amazing how time slows down in the moments.
Fuck. I always slow down when I see emergency lights ahead after that.
And before anyone bitches me out about it I was 18 and it was over 30 years ago.
It really does sucks for that guy, he deserves credit for giving us all a scare to slow down on public roads.
