The terrifying video shows drivers' brake lights suddenly appearing through the heavy fog.
As drivers hit the brakes cars are seen smashing into one another, sending debris flying.
Dashcam footage – taken by Leticia Heys- shows the speed some motorists still go in adverse driving conditions.
Leticia's husband Chris uploaded the footage to Facebook and said he felt "lucky" she was not killed in the crash, The Mail Online reports.
He wrote: "Today I feel very fortunate that but for the grace of god this morning i almost lost the most precious jewel in my crown, my wife.
"The video below is the dashcam footage from her car that shows just how close she was to getting hit from behind with a big truck.
"If she hadn't moved her car onto the hard shoulder when she did the truck would undoubtedly have hit her."
