While commuting in Calgary, an everyday drive quickly took a turn for the worse. A patch of snow caused the Jeep to veer across the highway, right into the side of a Ford. When the Jeep hit the patch of slush, it quickly lost control and hydroplaned. Even in Summer, the Calgary snow is relentless. Ironically, the Jeep driver had just taken off his winter tires, and a snowplow was only 30 seconds behind the incident. Thankfully, everyone involved was unharmed.
The incident was recorded on a Thinkware U1000 (now discontinued) dash cam, which provided clear and detailed 4K footage despite the challenging snowy conditions. This incident underscores the importance of maintaining proper tires for the season and the value of having a reliable dash cam to capture unexpected events on the road. With the Dash Cam, there was no doubt about what happened, assisting drastically in the claims that followed.
The footage was easily retrievable at the scene of the incident due to the dash cam's Wi-Fi and shareable with all parties involved.
