In Russia you only stop for a fatal crash if you are the one thats killed.

I dont think its brakes fail, more like too much speed with fully loaded vehicle

@xephos
Caused by failure of the brakes.

@Humbled Driving uphill or flat it's rather hard to accelerate, left aside having about 25.000 kgs loaded in the back.

You're right and that would apply if it weren't for him driving DOWNHILL.

@Humbled We seem to agree on some basics. I guess you think he just finished a downhill road?

I started to think that Russia has the most spectacular and devastating accidents, but than I realized that every country has it's share of terrible crashes, and that it's only because their are so many Russians using dashboard cams that you tend to see a lot more accidents on video than what you would see in countries like the US,UK and Australia. The only time you do see this type of footage is on those Highway patrol shows where the cops have cameras mounted on the dashboards of their patrol More..

@jasonr71 Exactly what I was thinking, they seem to use dashcams all the time. Is it because accidents are so frequent or motoring insurance is non-existent? plus the police don't seem to want to know.
In this crash the lorry was surely going too fast and didn't see the blockage, vodka/texting involved? As previous comment air brakes fail ON. ( all 18 wheels won't fade)

@gobsmaked
It's because of the 'Crash for Cash' culture. Insurance fraud is rife over there (as it is becoming in the UK).

@gobsmaked I think it would be a good idea in every country. Just have it installed as a standard. Easier for insurance, crime investigations etc. And of course LL videos....

@DukeBrazi True, dashcams would be perfect in this country.

@drtyrell Even us Europeans thinks it's shitty shit. Albeit there are coming good electronic music from Russia this shit is not this commercial ruskie pop shit. But we have Swedish House Mafia and as a swede i am ashmed of being from the same country as they are.

@nrein2000 Was thinking the same thing, however the truck driver survived so it didn't matter anyway.
