Canadians it seems to me are largely a nation of STUPID drivers. Just once I would like to drive at slightly over the posted limit and not have one on my azz, regardless of road conditions. There are numerous multi vehicle pileups occuring regularly, and the culprit is always the weather, and never blamed on STUPIDITY!

Looks like this horrific accident was somewhere in Russia. I'm surprised at the speeds and that there is no separation between opposing traffic lanes. Clearly points out that riding on the snow strip can cause problems. We have a section on I-95 south near me that is always in shadows during the day and thus any snow/ice that wasn't plowed is very iffy to drive on.....Gary

Too bad dash cameras aren't manditory in Canada, as I think they may be in Russia, although normally I don't support Government intervention. Anyone following too close should be charged with careless and not given a cent by their insurance company.

Come drive here on Dutch highways, drive with me to work in the morning, lots of people on a limited amount of lanes... Oh, and bring a couple of spare underwear.

If you've got a little free time YouTube "Bad Russian Drivers". I think some of them just have a death wish. Watch what happens at about 1:40 on this video.
