LITTLE CHUTE, Wis. – Police are investigating a crash that was caught on vehicle’s dashboard camera and posted to YouTube.

The video shows an SUV closely following a car on I-41 near Green Bay on Thursday morning, according to WBAY.

Just seconds later, the driver of the car suddenly hits the brakes, causing the SUV to lose control and crash into the median.

Police say the driver who crashed into the median was cited, and the driver who tapped the brakes hasn’t been identified.

Police did not say if that driver will face charges.
