Russia: More Bad Drivers, or More Front-Facing Driving Cameras?

[matthugie]

I love at how at 0:20 the lady doesn't even seem that surprised.

how do some of those catch on fire so easily? Shitty gas tank gets hit and sparks ignite it?

In Russia car starts fire for you

0% survival rate. It is probably the same here in the states if we could capture the accidents live.

Sorry I can't comment on the video, no youtube at work.



1/4 of a tank would be easier to catch fire with due to higher amount of oxygen inside the tank.

The amount of oxygen in the tank doesn't matter once it ruptures, I'd rather not have a full tank to fling around.

i guess nobody taught them to look both ways before you cross the street. Fucking retards
they also treat the snow like dry pavement.

Am I the only one who doesn't think this is anything special? If you compile crashes in America over years, and happen to have a ton of dash cams recording them, you could get a nearly identical video with crashes from here. I didn't watch the entire thing, but i've seen many of these crashes online before. I'm not sure how anything really over here is specific to russia. You guys ever seen a California driver drive in the snow?

Its disturbing how passerbys don't give two shits.

That was the first thing that stuck out to me lol, most of the pedestrians are really nonchalant about the accidents.

It's really also interesting how so many people in Russia drive in the wrong directions. Lots of these accidents could have been avoided if they stayed in their god damn lane.

Bro in Soviet Russia, car drives you. They drive like nutcases, freeways come to dead stops in rain/fog/any visual deterrent in CA lol.

I would think that people who have Winter 11 months out of the year would be a bit better at driving in the snow.

Seems like everyone just kinda does their own thing. Hurr durr.

I showed this to a friend from the Ukraine, and he was not at all surprised by this. He said that's just how it is out there, no one follows any kind of road rules, and as a pedestrian you know that a car is bigger and heavier than you so it will kill you if you step in front of it

[priapism]

I hear insurance fraud is so prevalent and traffic enforcement so lax that if you don't have actual video evidence of something occurring, you're SOL. So everyone has a dash cam. Plus ruskies don't give a fuck.

All I have to say is, the internet is a better place since Russia discovered the dash cam! ;)

I want a good dash cam, but can't seem to find a decent one for a decent price that turns on with the ignition.

I was thinking this video was all close calls, and then 1:03 happened
