I had something similar happen years ago, but it was a small car. We were on a "loop" Interstate highway. The outer lane and middle lane were "OK", but the highspeed lane was still covered with snow. This "neon" or something like that, jumped into the highspeed lane and started to go for passing me. I saw in the review mirror, he hit the inside guardrail, then bounced into the cars beind me. Huge chain reaction accident, a few yards behind me.

Back at that time, I had a 55 miles commute, each way. I lived in the "mountains" of Western Massachusetts. I remember another incident, just like Legion's, where an SUV run past me, and then I found him, a few miles later, stuck in the inside snowbank on the interstate. This was the middle of nowhere, seriously. I stopped, pulled out a couple of shovels, and helped the guy dig out.
