The caption says:


"The new Lefortovo tunnel just completed in Moscow, Russia tends to be a very dangerous place to drive. Check out the security footage of some crazy accidents that have occurred in the tunnel."

Like the bendy bus one. Must be a slippery road surface in there.

I don't know how that bus recovered but I bet the driver needed a change of undies at the next stop.

They don't seem to be able to see what's ahead of them before it's too late. I wonder if the camera is mounted on a slight bend?

[Edit] DOH:After watching it again I see a number of cameras involved and most of it is shot on bends.

I like the one at the end with the trucks...

Two trucks turn over almost blocking the tunnel, and then you see the cars indicating to drive around them...

Oh those russians!

in the last crash, where does the second truck come from? does it come out of a access rd off the side of the tunnel?

Looks like there is traffic coming towards them on right (on the other side of the pillars) and the second truck has managed to ricochet between the pillars into the path of the oncoming truck. That's what I think I see anyway.

Shayeeeet!
Driving is worse than when I was there in '88...

Who builds tunnels with bends??? Was the designer a frustrated biker perhaps???
