Snow torpedoed then road rage ensues
Before you say anything, it wasn't me! The car was left with a friend while away. Turns out he was behind a red jeep right after a snow storm. The jeep never cleaned off the top so when traveling at highway speeds the snow ends up being a missile as it slides off the roof. Luckily the dashcam driver wasn't closer or else it would have been worse. Perhaps a broken windshield at least.
Notice how the ice sheet flies through the air and crashes onto the pavement just as the dashcam driver runs over it. A little different timing and it could have been bad.
In the State of Connecticut it is required by state law to clean off the top of your car. Known as the Ice Missile Law, it states "The operator of any motor vehicle, as defined in section 14-1 of the general statutes, shall remove any accumulated ice or snow from such motor vehicle, including the hood, trunk and roof of such motor vehicle, so that any ice or snow accumulated on such vehicle does not pose a threat to persons or property while the vehicle is being operated on any street or highway of this state. Any operator who fails to remove accumulated ice or snow that poses such a threat shall be fined seventy-five dollars." Additionally, If the snow missile causes "vehicle and causes personal injury or property damage", then the fines go up to no less than $500 and up to $1250 for each offence.
So this is really a serious safety issue. With that said, notice how the dashcam driver proceeds to hit the horn and speed up to pass the vehicle. All while a police car is in sight. It appears that the police did not witness what had happened but could have been concerned with the right lane passer. The video cuts out just as what appears to be the cop's sirens sounding off. Car owner stated that when he reviewed the video, there seemed to be a gap in time that he couldn't explain.
