VIDEO: Danger of Following Too Close Shown When Driver of Second Vehicle Can’t React to Road Obstacle Obscured by First Vehicle

... #ad▼

The video shows a car swerving to avoid a mattress in the road, hitting a nearby car, causing it to flip across the interstate. Miraculously the driver walked away unscathed.

A driver lost control of her vehicle because she couldn’t see a mattress in the roadway because she was following too closely behind an SUV. She either hit the mattress or swerved to quickly and began to fishtail — hitting a truck in the right lane and then leaving the roadway along the shoulder.

The driver of the crashed sedan escaped serious injuries.
