Gob, you do know that the USSR is long since dead and these pics are from a much smaller country?

I'm sure someone with time on their hands could do a similar compilation for Back in the USA (Linda Ronstadt). On the subject of idiotic driving behavior, about a week ago, a couple of cars had a light fender bender on I-5 and the drivers just kept their cars stayed there in a lane of traffic, when they could easily pull off to the side, I suppose thinking Gil Grissom and the CSI crew would show up any second to allocate responsibility.

MANY MANY drivers in Russia have dash cams to prove innocence in the event of an accident. Few carry insurance, even for liability. That's why they need the cameras. I suppose if they are at fault, the camera disappears all of a suddn.

It's also why there are so many dash cam videos of accidents in Russia. Maybe they are all terrible drivers, maybe they aren't, but a lot of their driving is there for the world to see.

Ah! I always wondered why so many of the crash videos my client loves to watch (he’s a former 18 wheeler trucker) are Russian. Now I know!

I think the cameras cause the crashes. Statistics never lie :(
