    The problem is this wasn't some hours long storm, it was good weather then heavy snow in actual minutes. They likely didn't have the chance to find a place to get off the road.

    In that instance she likely would have survived in the car, but it also could have hit the car a bit further to the left and killed her.

    I say, she made a split moment decision and lived, so it was the right one.

    The problem is the drivers who don't adjust to the conditions that come about. Increasing space and slow down. Not barreling down the road.
