OMAHA, Neb. (KMTV) — Slick conditions can catch drivers off guard, and today the Iowa State Patrol shared a video that showed how dangerous wintry weather can be.
A trooper was helping an AMCON Distributing driver who was off the road on I-80 in Atlantic, Iowa. The AMCON truck's camera captured what happened next.
A pickup truck came right off the interstate and barreled toward them. Two people were transported to the hospital but with only minor injuries.
Shocking video today from a delivery truck on I-80 in Western Iowa. The AMCON Distributing driver, State Trooper, & occupants in the pickup truck were not seriously injured.
