Slow down before you start hydroplaning on a wet road. Even if you’re already going at/below the speed limit.
I’m thankful that I wore my seatbelt (as always), that the windshield didn’t shatter upon impact and that other drivers stopped to call 9-1-1 and kept me company as I was stuck in the driver’s seat and waiting for a rescue crew.
I wish I could’ve thanked those drivers, but they were gone by the time the rescuers extricated me.
So, um, yeah. Slow down on wet pavement. Especially on curvy roads that are conveniently next to creeks.
i’m glad that you were not hurt, and hopefully the car just had minor damage. that’s the thing about living in the south or in rural areas, it’s just a matter 3 feet and your life can be in danger.
Ouch! Glad that you’re okay. Not many people get to be photo-journalists at their own “event”
Scary stuff! Glad to hear you’re OK.
