Yeah, the Swift rear-ending the other semi like 9 seconds in does not seem particularly survivable since the drivers side of the cab gets obliterated.

He managed to avoid hitting the other cars and instead just hut the sign, probably only doing cosmetic damage to his car. And then that next car just barely missed him. Dude was probably thinking "fwew that was lucky" for like three seconds.

many years ago i got caught in a sudden massive downpour where visibility dropped drastically and i started slowing down and of course had this thought

still slowed down because duh, but it was a little harrowing

anyway, always slow down, because somebody ahead of you is going to either slow down or crash into someone who did, and when you rear end them you'll be the one at fault

That system was over me, too, but thankfully not while on the road. It was very eerie!

Blue skies, sun is out, and then within 10 minutes the skies went from cloudy to overcast, to dark, heavy storm clouds. Queue 5 straight minutes of sideways wind-driven snow. Within 10 minutes, it'd be back to blue skies and a bright sunny day.

It did this like 6 times.

when visibility is decreased or the driving surface is degraded, it is very important to SPEED UP

this reduces the time spent driving under hazardous conditions, meaning that you will arrive safely at your destination sooner

same for when you start getting sleepy while driving, go faster so you can get to your destination before falling asleep.
