Here we have yet another Russian driver whose dash-cam caught the moment a large tanker took a corner just a bit too fast.
When some people drive past large tankers or arctic lorries they tend to tense up and get that extra bit nervous. This is exactly why.
Driving through, what we assume is Russia, two car drivers and a trucker had near death experiences, but luckily escaped fairly unharmed.
The description on YouTube reads as follows: “?????? ??????? ?????? ?-4 ??? ??????????-????????????”. Needless to say, our Russian isn’t the best, but we’ll take a guess that it’s got something to do with a road called the M-4.
The large truck comes barrelling around the corner, barely missing an old Mercedes Benz only to slam into the ground and slide along the tarmac. Luckily for the driver of the camera car he jams on the brakes just in time and the tanker gives him a little nudge on the nose.
Had he of been driving half a mile an hour quicker for his whole journey he might not have been so lucky.
You have to feel sorry for the trucker at the end of the video though. It looks like he’s trapped in a little jail cell. In fairness, we’re not surprised that the driver of the camera car didn’t bother to help.
