A tram driver does not even flinch as she bulldozes into a car crossing the line, sending the vehicle spinning into the road and metal and glass flying. Shocking tram cab CCTV shows the moment the driver smashed into a car in Minsk, Belarus. The female driver remains completely poker faced as she ploughs through the people carrier at a crossing.

Technically Belarus is not part of Russia anymore but there has to be "In Russia" jokes somewhere.

Fools park in place while Russians across.

I blame Russia!

Idiot got what was coming to them

The trains must run on time...

[NorthMountain]

In America, you catch train ...
In Belarus, train catch you!

Are they suggesting she should have slammed on the brakes still hitting the car and hurting a lot of passengers?

God. I hate the media.

[lowbridge]

In her defense, the car was in her way.

I remember the video of the Russian guy driving his car when the big meteor brightly flashed in the sky. He pulled down the sun visor and kept driving - totally unmoved by what could have been a nuclear explosion.

I guess these people have seen so much awfulness in their lives that what would be a traumatic event for us is just ho-hum to them.

Come on. This was actually Pres. Trump’s doing.

How does the “journalist” know the driver is “poker faced” when you never see her face in the video?

Does the “journalist” think the driver should panic and freak out, or instead remain calm and professional as she brings the tram safely to a stop after an incident over which she had no control?

I'm sensing a movie here:

"The Lady and the Tram."

[budj]

Probably a simple reflex action: it happens so often she’s knows just what to do.

...and that’s really scary.

Belarus is such a basket case not even Putin wants to take them in.

[Parley Baer]

Looks to me like the car was trying to beat the train and lost.

[G Larry]

Driver must be drunk or high.

[Alas Babylon!]

Russian videos are the best. Those people have no moral compass. They are eat up with stupid behavior which they love to document and post to Youtube.

We, of course, are hurrying to emulate them.

She did take action even before the car was on the tracks.
