This was probably due to stupidity rather than holiday rush, but on my way home on Thursday, I saw an ugly accident - and it happen only a few cars away from mine.
As I was merging into the 170 from the 134, I saw a black sedan zooming dangerously fast on the left-most lane. With the cars starting to back up ahead, I figured this idiot didn't have much room to continue their reckless driving - but I was wrong. A few seconds later i saw that same car begin zig-zagging around braking cars... still going extremely fast. (As if he/she was racing, but no one was racing with them!) The next second i saw a car spin and hit the divider... sparks shooting up from the impact... and then that car spun around and darted across 4 lanes of the freeway. The car on the right-most lane couldn't stop in time and hit the spun out car - liquid pouring onto the highway from the front.
Luckily everyone else had slowed down to a crawl as they saw what was happening and only about 4 cars seemed to have gotten involved. I can't tell if the stupid car was one of the 4 cars pulled over... but I sure hope they stopped at least and took responsibility for their actions.
It only takes one Idiot to cause an accident... so just be as careful as you can!
Take it easy out there and be SAFE! :)
