Came on this accident today.
Schneider was not at fault.
The lady ran straight into him at 80+.
Nothing left oh her or the SUV.
Whether you're in a truck or a car, I say to you slow down.
There is never a reason to be in a hurry.
Speed kills Absolutely

Suicide, plain and simple. Poor orange was in the wrong place at the right time. Could happen to any one of us.

Witnesses say lady was driving at high rate of speed. Hit the curve, over corrected and went right into Schneider who was doing the speed limit.
One witness that the lady passed saw her drift into Schneiders path and the SUV literally exploded into thousands of pieces.Lepton1, Texas_hwy_287, OLDSKOOLERnWV and 5 others Thank this. -

Glad the driver is physically ok, hopefully he/she will be able to get back behind the wheel afterwards. Hopefully the Safety folks at Schneider don't try and put a preventable on their DAC.

They all forget that gravity and the dynamics of a moving vehicle don't mate very well. Gravity will always win.
What really gets me though, is how all these car companies brag about saftey features.
Yet when you consider the impact of this type of accident, safety features are a wash.driverdriver and bzinger Thank this. -
Bottom line,,,2 words,,,dash cam.
