Accident!!!! We could have died on the Interstate.

Accident!!!! We could have died on the Interstate..
We were returning home on the interstate from a day trip.
The weather had turned bad, the roads got very slick very fast, it was raining hard.
Common sense dictates that one should slow down on slick roads.
We did.
A bonehead in a hurry driving a van thinks otherwise.
The van hydroplaned on wet pavement,
The van goes into an uncontrollable skid and almost flipped in front of us. He instead ending up in the break down lane. Narrowly missing us. He must have been pretty shaken after he came to a stop.
Had things had occurred differently and he stayed in our lane of travel it would have been a terrible mess.
Fortunately all persons involved are doing well. A little shaken but otherwise well.
All within a few miles, we past one accident where a motorcyclist had died. Two pickup trucks were in an accident, and still, people do not learn to slow down in the pouring rain.
Yes, I did cuss. I'm only human.
