Hwy 11 in Northern Ontario. Traffic isn't too heavy but for some reason people like to bunch up. The truck in the lead slowed to pull off the highway and the idiots behind couldn't slow in time. Fortunately nobody got hurt.
Apparently the chip truck pulling off had a fire earlier and was moving to a safe place with the the cube van behind as an escort. They may have been going slow which may have helped create the pack of vehicles behind them. Whether they had any business being on the highway without a proper escort and what part that may have played doesn't change the fact the the fools behind them got way too close together.
Always leave yourself lots of room.
The guy with the dash cam is apparently only 23 years old. He did danm good.
This is why you stay away from the pack
