The same thing happened to me last year on I-80 in Northern California. It was raining pretty hard and I was in a sporty BMW, but I decided to slow it down to the recommended 55 mph, but even that wasn't enough. I was driving in the far left lane, hit a patch of water, hydroplaned, tried to counter-steer but hit the concrete divider, then spun across the other two lanes of traffic, miraculously not hitting anyone, and landed right into a ditch. Besides a stiff neck I was fine. I'm glad to hear you shared the luck I was blessed with that day and survived your accident unscathed to.
