The SUV only put its right rear tire into another lane of traffic, and the one car it came close to was still feet away. The SUV was stopped from entering oncoming traffic by the guard wires installed in the median. Additionally if you watch the video you’ll see no one in the oncoming lanes swerve because there is no…

Inches? No, try feet. The SUV is stopped by guard wires and kept safe. If you watch the video you’ll see not a single car in oncoming traffic swerves. The SUV was in no danger of crossing over.

If you look at the gif, the SUV only had their right rear tire enter another lane of traffic. That lane only had one car near SUV at the time it swerved, and there was several feet between the two vehicles.

They, in fact, are not a single thing going wrong from death. The things that went wrong here are, tailgating, brake checking, panic braking, panic swerving, over correcting, over correcting again. That series of things going wrong didn’t bring anyone near death. To get near death further things would have to go…

Ah yes, because I said the accident wasn’t near death that must mean I support attempts to drift a SUV on public highways at speed.

Since you seem like you store snow tires yourself. When storing a winter season tire does it need to lay flat or be kept standing like it was on a car? Do I need to worry about developing flat spots or letting air pressure out when not used? I want to get a set of winter tires and rims; I just don’t want to mess them…

I’m not saying who was right or wrong, and yes things could have been worse, especially on Firestone tires. However the facts of the matter are that no one was seriously injured, and thus no one was near death.

Wow. I must have hit really close to home with my comment. Maybe you should get off of internet when you should be doing school work.

You got a legit LOL out of me, and my thanks.

Where did I say anyone was not to blame? I just said it wasn’t a near death accident.

all bets are off, and people die.

My wife’s X-Drive has never failed us. Granted we don’t live in the lake effect snows that can and do hit Michigan, but we’ve driven home with no issues that were stranding other cars and SUVs.

Go back to playing with your toys child, and leave the dicussion to adults.

*golf clap*

Anything could happen. An IED could have been right next to the SUV when it drove into the median with a pressure plate that detonated a low grade nuke.

You seem to be under the false impression that when two cars touch they both explode. The car didn’t flip, didn’t enter oncoming traffic, didn’t even hit another vehicle. Death is not guaranteed in any of the things you said almost happened. That means AT LEAST two degrees of separation from dying, that’s not nearly…

I didn’t see the oncoming traffic driving in the median. I saw oncoming traffic driving on the other side of the highway that the SUV never crossed in to. I guess you missed the guard ropes that did their job and kept the SUV from entering oncoming traffic. I guess you missed the SUV safety features that kept everyone…

If the tires dug in, and IF the truck flipped, they MAY have died. That’s a lot of if’s and may’s, which is definitely not nearly dying. Had the car actually rolled, then yes nearly dying would be accurate, but it didn’t flip thus nearly dying is not accurate.

Well said.

Considering that in 2015 people in the USA drove a cumulative total of nearly 3.2 trillion miles and roughly 33,000 people died driving. That’s a rate of 1 death for every 96,969,696 miles driven, or 1.03 deaths for every 100 million miles driven. That is in fact not many people dying considering how much driving…
