Wow! I would still want to kick the stuffing out of the clown that tried to pass and was recording!

I believe I would be saying, "Chudo Chudo Chudo" as well.

Mods, don't flip out here....I googled Chudo and it is a Russian term for magnificent or magic. In this situation, I believe it was "magic" that they got out of this situation unschathed.

Wow, nice job by the truck driver coming the other way. As fast as the passer and the truck being passed stopped they must have been going fairly slow. Very lucky to be here though.

Why on earth did he pass that truck? (rhetorical question obviously lol) It was not hard to see the headlights as he would have started going around and it was also easy to see those headlights were attached to a huge rig.

Wow, that was a really reckless move on their part all the way around.

We may never know why the camera in the vehicle was on when it was.., but I would bet that the police car was chasing after the truck that sped around the snow plow truck and almost took out the other vehicles.

I agree, there is a little "WOW factor" going on in the video.

It kind of looks like two idiots lucked out. The one passing and the big rig that was going too fast. I think I read somewhere that "God looks out for fools".
