Edited to ad this warning. Don't click on this video if you are squeamish about watching bad car/truck accidents.

------------------------------------------------
Finally found the information on this crash
The footage, filmed on a dashboard camera in South Korea, shows how even safe drivers can find themselves caught in a fatal crash.
This crash was apparently caused by a driver in a white Hyundai Azera, who is believed to have blacked out after hitting a car in another accident which happened off camera.
The unconscious driver's car then continued down a hill onto the highway where it ploughed into the truck.
Three people in the Azera died, while the truck driver was left in critical condition and a couple inside the car with the dashboard camera both suffered minor injuries.

This is really grisly, disturbing stuff.

(28,151 posts)Yep, just like that. You Never Know.
Always a good idea to tell your loved ones that you love 'em & maybe give 'em a hug when sayin' it~like whenever you part company. I even do it with dear friends, give them a hug and say something like "Love you Bunky".
I know if such a thing happened to me I'd like my kids to be able to say "The last thing she said to me was 'I love you'."
Because you just never know.

(16,201 posts)The couple in the car with the dash cam survived. The accident happened on South Korean Highway 50. (They use signs that look like the US signs, including using red white and blue)
