Impressive footage... I would love to see some of these explosions that are reported.< http://www.russianmachineneverbreaks.com/2013....yabinsk > Posted by TPRJones on Feb. 15 2013,07:53
Apparently it landed in a lake: < http://dft.ba/-4ibI >The article claims it's related to 2012 DA14, but it's not. Twelve hours too soon and going in the wrong direction. Pure coincidence. Posted by TPRJones on Feb. 15 2013,08:10
I thought it interesting that so many dash cameras happened to catch it. Made me wonder if maybe this is some well coordinated viral ad for something. But it seems that almost everyone in Russia does indeed have a dash cam because the drivers there are < just awful >

Yeah. That's a Russian thing. Makes for awesome youtube footage.

He says it's so you can have evidence in case you get in an accident. Posted by GORDON on Feb. 15 2013,12:14
Yeah, there are composite youtube videos of crash after crash of terrible Russian drivers, because responsible peeps know they need dashboard cams.Which would get you thrown in jail in America, of course, because you aren't allowed to film cops on duty. Posted by Malcolm on Feb. 15 2013,12:36
QUOTE ...because you aren't allowed to film cops on duty. "On duty" indicates they're doing actual work. Posted by TPRJones on Feb. 15 2013,14:41
(GORDON @ Feb. 15 2013,14:14) QUOTE Yeah, there are composite youtube videos of crash after crash of terrible Russian drivers... I know, I've been watching them all day. Does no one in Russia learn to "Steer for the Rear" to avoid a side-impact collision? Every single time I car is about to t-bone another in these videos, they always swerve to try to go around the front of the other car, which is of course where that car will be in just a moment ready for impact. So much dumb. Posted by TPRJones on Feb. 15 2013,15:09
I think my single favorite incident so far is this one: < http://www.youtube.com/watch?v....#t=510s >I have no idea what is going through that guy's head, but if it was "I'll get hit and sue and be rich" then this tape surely helped in the defense. Posted by Leisher on Feb. 18 2013,11:36
< It was an American weapon. >Or so says Russia's crazies. Posted by Malcolm on Feb. 18 2013,11:41
You know that if this happened over a U.S. city, either North Korea or Iran would be claiming some double s3kr1t probation weapon of theirs did this.
