Hey guys I just wanted to make a thread about what happened to me the other day. I was driving to chicago for winter break from California. Day one went smooth. Slept in salt lake city. Day two started fine but then I got half way across Wyoming and the weather got bad. I was slowed down to about 50 from 75 when my car hit black ice. I spun before I could even respond I was headed in the ditch and then I flipped landed on the roof and skid to a stop. I realized I was ok but I was stuck hanging by the seat belt. I was luck someone stopped and cut the belt. I crawled out and stood in amazement that I was ok. Got the tow to the nearest town. I spent the night and then got a ride to denver and flew here to Chicago. Its been a crazy few days but I'm glad I'm safe and didn't get hurt

Good to hear! Lucky for you you didn't hit anything that would have caused a sudden stop. That's what will get you, every time. I bet you enjoy your holidays this year!

Black ice is very dangerous. I try to avoid driving if I can when there's icy conditions or heavy fog. I saw this horrific crash on youtube caused by icy driving conditions is Russia. A small truck starts swerving on the highway and then loses control. He crosses the center lane and gets T-boned by a Semi Truck coming down the highway. It's an awful, horrific crash. The driver in the small truck died instantly. The truck was totally demolished.
