I actually got hit by someone that did the same thing on 290 about 20 years ago. T/A trying to race a 911...went sideways and hit me in the back (I was driving a cargo van doing 75). Spun me in circles through heavy traffic...somehow I didn't flip over, and didn't hit any other cars. Ended up backwards scraping against the inside of a bridge overpass. Cop pulled over to cite me for facing the wrong way...driver of the T/A took off.
The company I worked for fired me over it, and witheld my last 2 weeks of pay...had to get the IL dept of labor involved to get my last paycheck...took 6 months!
Yeah, anyway...sorry for the rant.
