From Dan: How the crime of copyright infringement took $1 million from me and brought down my business.

I've lost more than $1 million to copyright infringement in the last 15 years, and it's finally brought an end to my professional storm chasing operation. This page is a detailed account of the biggest threat to my photography and video operation that I had to battle daily to just barely survive, and eventually could not overcome. It's a problem facing all of my colleagues as well.

FULL ACCOUNT: January 24, 2014 south Texas road icing event

Even though this was a winter storm 'chase' of sorts, I chose to post the full account at the icyroadsafety.com site. Below is a sequence of frame grabs from HD video of a tractor-trailer crash captured during this trip:

The video of this is posted on the Youtube channel.
