Driving 70mph in pitch dark and couldn’t see, am I getting that part right?

Well people usually go the speed limit out of habit.. Conditions looked like it was getting better since the snow was melted away by the rain.

I don't know why, but I never considered the possibility that something was blocking the road like that. I have driven for 8 years and it is my first accident. I know it is stupid of me looking back, but now I learned to drive more cautiously I guess.

There you go. I had a similar accident when I hadn’t been driving very long, definitely a learning experience. Good news is that you weren’t injured.

For lots of people it’s a deer in the road that doesn’t move and then your car ends up in the ditch or the trees. Or a moose if in Canada.
