Richardson police release dashcam video of a vehicle hydroplaning and crashing into a tow truck

Sometimes seeing is believing, so we are sharing this video as a reminder about the hazards that can exist while driving on wet and flooded roadways.

Reduce your speed to increase your safety. We are thankful the officers and workers helping clear the initial crash were not injured.

The driver and passengers in the vehicle that hydroplaned and crashed into the tow truck, fortunately, did not suffer serious injury.
