VIDEO: Truck falls through ice in Wisconsin

STURGEON BAY, Wisc. - (NBC) - A man in Wisconsin drove his Cadillac Escalade onto frozen Lake Michigan, and the situation didn’t end well this weekend.

The driver was attempting to tow an ice shanty to another spot on the lake Saturday when the ice broke underneath and swallowed both.

No such thing as Safe Ice...especially when driving something as heavy as an Escalade.

I'm sure these types of situations are spelled out in a Wisconsin car insurance policy.

I recall, years ago, when a person attempted to move a house out to one of the Apostle Islands in Lake Superior during the winter.
Needless to say, the house, semi-truck and trailer now reside at the bottom of Lake Superior. [emoji33] [emoji41]

10-15 years ago, a picture of a beer truck that broke through the ice on Lake Winnebago was in our local newspaper. I cannot find it online, but I remember the caption making a point that the beer was saved.

Our insurance will not cover it.
