dang that's crazy, i wonder did he get the trucks insurance for causing the debris that cracked his windshield and dent damages? what do you do in this situation, continue on your drive like nothing happened or pull over and wait for the cops and etc?

dunno but you are not suppose to pull over and wait for cops on an icy freeway where an accident has just occurred, not a smart thing to do. Sure a cop would tell ya the same, might wanna keep that in mind.

Wow, that's some excellent car control on the driver's part! Crazy how things like that happen just as someone is driving by with a dash cam (didn't look like an LEO dash cam either)

To heck with snow in the bay area, black ice was the larger danger in the last week. I totally saw temps below freezing on the highway in the tri valley this weekend.
