the camera was already set up in the right place, and damned if the pile up on the highway didn't cause a loaded semi to swerve toward the camera to avoid crashing into the parked cars and trucks, and lay over because of the ditch along Highway 84 in Lubbock County, Texas



Driving too damn fast for the fog limited visibility, reported to be as low as 40 feet.

So, the red Chevy truck was moving too damn slow to get out of the way and out of the fast lane, and the semi was moving too fast to avoid hitting everything on the road no matter what lane it was in...

but that red Chevy was blocking both lanes when it went to pull into the slow lane, directly in front of the semi that legally must drive in the slow lane.

  1. Wow, close call for those people om the ground! That moment when you realize how fast you can really move. Hope no one was in the cab of the white Ford pickup.

  2. Okay, HEAVY FOG! Slow the F--- DOWN! You know, I drive for my work, and I am constantly amazed at how many people are so untuned to the weather conditions. It's like they think they're gods or something. Just a little common sense can save so many lives.

  3. The man in the cowboy hat and the yellow slicker just about became a statistic.
