love how not one of those ppl, except the cameraman went back to warn traffic before that point, ridiculous. so much could have been avoided, good on him tho!

there should be a category 'super accidents'. what a mess....

No one went to warn the incoming traffic and no one even considered to turn on the hazard lights. From Europe this looks like insanity. Even on good weather, at every major slowdown, everyone puts the hazard lights on because its known fact that any abrupt slowdown on highways can lead to deadly pileups.

they are all there shooting a flipping video and nobody warn the traffic!! that´s so crazy stupid!!!

#3 I do it so many times my girlfriend makes fun of me.

3:38 is that guy lighting a cigarette? If so, i hope someone learns him a lesson about open fires around accident areas...

Yea, i live in norway, and i know what you mean. But this is in Minnesota, which is quite far up north, so i would assume they have experience with this weather type as well? I dunno... but yea, when i was on the Autobahn, the drivers were very good at using the emergency lights when something occurred.

Sometimes it just doesn't matter, the surface just makes it impossible to do much unless you're driving with spikes (which are illegal in some places now at this time a year).

Wish the guy had a GoPro helmet cam.

It is a fact that icing could happen on the bridges and under the bridges. You should always slow down and be careful when you get closer to such places. You should slow down with downshifting and not to brake. If you get your wheels locked and begin to slip, then it is too late. If you have time and distance then you should stop braking and try to set the car right. As much of you say that it is a pity that no one tries to warn the oncoming traffic. I guess it should be nice to get all the cars equipped with sudden brake warning. Some of the cars in Europe have this system and when you make a sudden brake then the hazard lights go on automatically.

#1 its called the by standard effect

This is what happens when you get your license at 15 with just basic instructions and only drive modern automatics. You have no sense of being involved with the act of driving and the risks that need to be managed.

This is AMERICA......more than 70% there are inadequate drivers. I was 2 years in that freaking country and both years i watch same crashes. I was standing at one exit and watch how the IDIOTS drive's car's for lot of money and they thing will stop like in summer, and with 60 miles go to exit and guess what )) There is a people that having shit in their had instead of brain .. Unbelievable

"11" Well I was in England for 5 years and those IDIOTS could not park a car without hitting another. Plus I was hit by drunk drivers three times while there. I guess stupidity is universal. Don't be jealous that you aren't AMERICAN shithead.
