Dashcam’s Wild Tornado Moment: Power Lines on the Road

A stunning dashcam clip, recorded on July 27 by a commuter in eastern Wisconsin, shows a powerful tornado flinging utility power lines right onto a moving car. The storm not only toppled poles but also threw large segments of cable across the road.

The video, now trending on social media, gives viewers a real‑time look at the abrupt, once‑in‑a‑lifetime weather event that rattled the region. Emergency crews contain the damage to buildings, and after an hour, utility companies restore power to thousands of customers.

Despite its dramatic visuals, the incident was thankfully a near‑miss: no fatalities were reported as the crash occurred between cars trapped behind a split highway. The footage highlights both the beauty and danger of nature’s fury.
