“When winter storms strike, the safest place is behind the plow.”
That’s the message of this video, shared by u/VermontArmyBrat in the r/IdiotsInCars community this week.
In the video, a snowplow is driving down a rural road clearing slippery snow off the road. When the plow slows down traffic a bit, an impatient driver swerves into the left lane to pass it. Mere seconds later, their vehicle slips on the slick road, crashes into a snow bank, and flips their car on its side.
