Those arresting wires preformed perfectly! Give them a raise lol

The semi truck was going way to fast for the slippery, wet road, rainy conditions & his jack knife was the result of hydroplaining!!!

[chrisgeezvlog]

That truck in the first clip was going WAY too fast for the conditions! 😦

[kellyjostad]

I didn’t see anyone following (and obviously watching these drivers losing control ) slow in the slightest.

[greathornedowl]

Amazing, glad they did not take anyone else with them, especially the semi

[karlmalone]

I would've taken my foot off the throttle and coasted through that puddle. My first year trucking I almost jackknifed when I didn't even need my wipers on, it was just slightly wet road. Hopefully he's OK and still employable.

A lot of drivers nowdays drive as fast as they can everywhere they can, ya see all day long

[johnrambo]

Hey the road is wet. Let me go faster on this sharp corner. XD

[jasonasselin]

Every time it rains there are accidents on the freeway system.. Oil much?

[fknbastages]

Everyone's driving like a maniac since the police stopped pulling people over.

[davidwilken]

That contractor screwed up, left insufficient drainage for the road.

[truthseeker]

What committee of geniuses made this corner so square!!!

[mangos]

I don’t think that black truck next to the semi had any brake lights! 😳

[dracoxx]

when driving fast in bad weather conditions goes right🤣

[spongebobsquarepants]

wow, … good thing a barrier was there otherwise he would have hit the oncoming car ☹️

[phatgringo.]

Did any civilians stop to see if these guys were okay?

[historyhunter]

Bro held on and rode that ish the whole way! This guy saved ALOT of injuries!!!

[ChattyCheugy]

The lane was clearly submerged in water. Even the cop was confused

[Towtrucker]

It almost looks as if the van driver wasn't paying attention or was trying to pass that vehicle on the shoulder. No matter why it happened, that was a wild ride and I hope they're ok.

[kristifounds]

Had to watch that first one 4 or 5 times, didn't look like the smaller truck even put on his brakes, but maybe I missed it. Sharp corner, lots of water, going too fast, yep ouch. Second one, can't believe he missed those two cars. They were lucky, hope he was too.
