Caught a truck losing control on my dash cam

    Driving through middle-o-nowhere SC today for work and this happened. From what I can tell the guys in the white truck must have taken their eye off the road. They got into the dirt on the right shoulder, took out a road sign, over corrected and slid sideways across both lanes.

    If I had splurged for the rear facing camera it would have caught them jack-knifing the trailer in the grassy median. I was honestly amazed they didn't flip the truck. They were both fine. I pulled over and watched them inspect the truck while throwing their hands in the air. I'm just glad they didn't hit anyone else. They were easily doing 50 when they lost control.


    EDIT-if you click on the V it will take you to the video where you should be able to view it in full screen. This is my first time using Vimeo.

    From "middle-o-nowhere SC" I resemble that remark....
    Where was that, looks familiar, between Sumter and Columbia?

    I'm honestly not sure and I was trying to figure that out. I was heading to Rock Hill from Knoxville on some 4 lane highway. Just mindlessly following my GPS. May have been HWY 72.
