Default Too fast for conditions

I saw this on TV while sitting at the bar after work. I figured it had to be on Youtube, sure enough it was. I hope this isn't a repost

When was the last time you drove through the flat land of the central US when the roads were covered with spots of "black" ice?

To be fair, I've never done that, but I also know not to do 80 when there's snow all around me.

its amazing how the dog senses something bads about to happen and braces for impact. if you watch the dog he starts to crouch down way before the car is even near the truck.

That's a re-post! Shame on you!

Just kidding, I don't know why some people think that everyone is supposed to have seen every thread that's ever been posted here.

From the way that guy ran up to the car and then turned around without trying to talk to the driver, I'd guess that he/she was pretty messed up.

Ive seen an article about this film. And actually I think the dog dies. I believe he gets cut from some metal during the accident it gets infected and he dies. Other than that I think everyone gets out ok.
