Winter driving at its best

Here is a video you have got to see, it shows car after car after car sliding on a slick road in a chain reaction accident. It doesn't look like anyone got hurt, most cars weren't going that fast. It looks like maybe some of them weren't the best winter drivers, for example, most of the cars have their brakes locked up and seem to just give up instead of pumping the brakes or trying to steer into the other lane. The story is about another big chain reaction accident on I96 in Michigan involving approximately 200 vehicles that didn't slow down becasue of the fog.

Here is the link to the story and video:

Make sure to check out the people that actually jump or roll out of their cars to try and avoid the accident, and one almost gets sandwiched between two vehicles. Not exactly sure what they were thinking there. The video takes place in Denver.
