Icy Roads Ahead | National Geographic

it’s the number one killer on winter
roads in the u.s. claiming more than
twice as many lives most years then
severe thunderstorms
tornadoes and hurricanes combine its ice
and when it forms on the cold asphalt it
blends in perfectly making the road
smooth slick and dangerous
so imagine how terrifying it must be for
this trucker when he hits his brakes and
just keeps going now jump inside the cab
and take the wheel would you know how to
survive this icy skid
what would you do hey keep your eyes out
for hazards and accelerate to
re-establish your grip be apply slow
constant pressure to the brakes or C let
off the gas and let your back wheels
lead the way
