Motorhome Crash 5/11/2015

The concrete is not a drainage ditch. It is the bottom or base where the cable is installed. After looking at it again,it appears he shot through it but dragging it may have turned him slightly right a.bit especially when the last two cars passed on the other side. The cables weren't designed for that big of a vehicle but they may have helped to save a couple of lives

FWIW concerning the speed factor - Given that there's 40 feet for each dashed line and space on the lane divider, and I counted roughly 26 dashes passed in 11 seconds from the start of the clip until the MH veers, I estimate that the truck was doing very close to 65 mph.

astute observation. i think the police and insurance agents will factor that into their decision regarding fault finding.
