Here is a video of Russian drivers in a recently opened new tunnel.
Idiots.
The music is pretty good too.

I suspect there was ice invovled in a majority of the tunnel accidents we see in the video. The accidents appear to be the result of the vehicles suddenly spinning out of control.
Absolutely unbelievable. What are all those "drivers" doing, smokin' somethin'????? Sheeeeeesh...........
Russians are the worst drivers in the world - with absolutely no regard for traffic regulations .
Its hard to see from the video but these cars are going WAY over the speed limit and probably losing it on tires that are way past worn.
That's just wild.
And what's with that bus wagging the tail? Doesn't even look like he slowed down.
I'll have to save this URL......any idea what the name of the song is? (perhaps, 'I know I'll love you better'?)
Yikes. Looks like speed is the factor, not ice or de-icer (the other cars appear to brake just fine). I'm guessing that some folks gun it in the tunnel thinking the cops can't see?
It looks a lot like Lower Wacker in Chicago.
OMG!
Vodka-assisted driving? I can't see any other reason.
