    This is why we have a divider. If 401 didn't have them i'm sure there'd be dozens of these sorts of accidents. I've seen a car do this before, but it ended up with the driver slamming into the divider and skidding to a stop.

    Bike or Car if a truck and trailer hits you at full speed your dead.

    A block from where I live a full size SUV was going through on a green and a Civic sized compact went through on the red (Texting??) and clipped the rear of the SUV kicking it sideways enough to cause it to roll under its own momentum. SUV was a write-off the little car only needed a new front end. I guess te ricer knew karate. Fortunately no serious injuries because everyone had their belts on.

    Snow tires.
    So many SUV/ truck drivers think that four wheel drive means they can do whatever they want in the snow. Once you are moving four wheel drive doesn't really help.

    GF's mom thinks the "Snow button" on her highlander is a magic button that allows her to drive however she wants. I've sat in the car with her while driving in snow and shes cutting in and out of traffic and even cut in front of a tractor trailer and hit her brakes hard (I swear I saw my life flash before my eyes). Many of us have tried to explain that she couldn't do that but of course.... Adults know everything and coming from young adults, she won't listen. + No snow tires.
    In Woodbridge? See a silver highlander driving like a maniac? Stay awayyyy Farr awayy.

    that's just wrong, but if nothing else will make me think twice about driving on un-divided dual carriageway. it also definitively disabuses viewers about just who loses in a car/truck versus transport truck accident. . .

    . . .actually, in hindsight, i still wish i hadn't seen that.

    How is this clip any different than watching the mass murder of thousands of innocents in a plane being slammed into the World Trade Center being replayed over and over and over again?

    As someone pointed out, adjusting to weather is huge. People also have a terrible habit of over steering the minute they lose control of their vehicle.

    So sad.

    it isn't. never said it was right that the families of those victims have to be put through that either. . .

    that being said, i suspect most of us have driven in poor conditions before, and even lost some small semblance of control and traction, which would allow us to make the scenario in that video very, very vivid in our imaginations. on the other hand, some of us have probably never been on a plane, and certainly, few if any of us have ever been in a plane that lost control or been hijacked. so, much harder to relate to.

    This warning is probably too low in the page, but people die in this video.

    This clip is different in the fact that we drive our cars everyday and it hits closer to home. This can happen at anytime jut driving to work.
    The 911 tragedies were hard I watch but hits a different button as its an isolated event that's not that likely to happen to anyone here.
    Both terrible but on different scales.

    Yeah that road definitely needs a center barrier on it. IMO any road with a speed limit of 60k or above should be protected from oncoming traffic. Especially 4 lane roads. That was horrible. RIP

    We have many many roads like that in Ontario, which do not have a center divider. Unfortunately, I've seen a similar accident on Hwy.7 a few years ago. Wasn't as brutal, but almost identical, a minivan rammed Civic, which was out of control. Wasn't much left of a car.

    That could be any highway in Northern Ontario like 11 or 17. Crashes like that happen all the time.

    I have seen quite a few, and even transports are no match for another transport.

    SUV lost control on icy road, went sideways into opposite lane and got obliterated into small pieces by 18-wheeler (undivided highway).
