Dramatic dash cam shows deputy avoid truck collision in Kent County

Dramatic police dash cam video shows a frightening close call on the west side of Michigan.

 A mini-van unable to stop on a slippery road careened into the side of a big rig in Kent County.

The Kent County sheriff deputy was driving the opposite way and also narrowly avoided a head-on collision with the semi.  The deputy was forced to drive into a ditch.
 
Incredibly, only minor injuries were reported. But the sheriff's department released this video as a warning to keep your eyes on the road at all times  especially with snow and ice on the roads.
