    Wow. All you can really say is...wow. That SUV, I'm almost certain no one survived that. And the driver has to live with that for the rest of his life. The only way he could have prevented that from happened was to call in sick.

    Deepest sympathies to all involved.

    Doesn't look like black ice, looks like a slushy road and even the dash cam vehicle were traveling faster than they should have. Once you get out of the tracks, things go bad quickly.

    That happened about 1/2 mile from the radio station I worked at. I knew the deputy who's dashcam shot that video. Both people died in that accident, the truck driver was injured. The mother of the daughter who was in the truck, was buying that pickup from the apartment complex she worked at, no one but the mother was supposed to be driving it so the mother got fired also besides losing her daughter.
