No nose dive, no swerve, brake lights off as he swerves left to enter the snow bank. The state police should have placed the pad block on a straight stretch to compensate for his illegally excessive speed.

Maybe you should have given Mr. Finicum and his friends the physics lessons.

Go through it, frame by frame. Brake lights are ON at 9:12. (Approx. 9:12.3 as close as I can tell.) Brake lights STAY ON from that point on. Swerve begins a full second later (or very close to a full second), well into 9:13.

What vid are YOU watching? Jurassic Park?

What were the road conditions?

Dry
Wet
Icy
Black Ice

??

An experienced cold weather driver would have avoided brakes in many of these conditions. Would have induced an unpredictable slide/spin.
