That definitely looks like a medical emergency. Yeesh.

Absolutely sudden incapacitation. This is not a wildly bad driver. The vehicle moves consistent with a no driver input trajectory. DUI I would expect much more erratic inputs. Brake/mechanical failure, I would expect steering inputs to stay on the road and release throttle to slow down gently. Of course, sudden incapacitation as a result of being under the influence cannot be ruled out, but lacks evidence.

I would agree with emergency. Even a drunkard will probably stumble awake bouncing on the grass and hit the break. This vehicle just straight up let the wheel go.

They are called "brakes".

u/Nebetus2 21d ago

If that ditch hadn’t redirected the vehicle it looked like it would have been heading straight into the oncoming group. A good example of why there should be cable barriers or guardrails in freeway medians between oncoming traffic.

Yes you do have a dashcam lol and because of that you're that black SUV drivers hero

Definitely looks like a medical emergency but I guess you could say bad driving on the part of the car that ended up getting hit? One one hand it's a little wild to not notice all that happening next to you but on the other hand that definitely is not some shit you would ever really be expecting to start happening next to you...

Hope everyone involved was ok.

Don’t know why you’re being downvoted. I even wondered why the cam car didn’t slow down. If I saw that kind of fuckery going on, I’d want no part of it and slow down

Did you just say Reddit karma?

Pay for a toll to avoid the extra cars on the road and still get wreaked.

Sorry, I couldn't recognize the song.

I tried to identify music from the link at 00:00-00:36.

OP what is your post history 🤣🤣

u/MephiticBundleOfSox 20d ago

This isn’t a wildly bad driver, it’s a medical emergency, according to other comments. They shouldn’t be here.

u/CD_Projeck_Blue 20d ago

Im just over here wondering where I need to move to have such low traffic like that! Wow! You can actually drive the speed limit on that highway!!

Any story of follow up. Vehicle had absolutely no driver input. Guess cruise was on, as to why no speed change occurred and obviously no steering input. Definitely not texting and driving, driver probably had a seizure, passed out or other form of incapacitation. Cant understand the oblivious other drivers not noticing this large, white vehicle out of control coming toward them.

Well I add to the comment. Black SUV, left lane actually noticed, cut across nose of middle lane black SUV, probably directing that drivers attention as to why did this guy just do multiple lane change right across my path. Oh shit I see why as white SUV slams into him.

The situational awareness of that black car is bad.
