Russian Cops Crack Down Hard on Drunk Driver


We're not aware of all the details surrounding this video captured on the dash-cams of two police cars, but there's no doubt that these cops weren't fooling around with the driver and occupants of a speeding silver sedan in the Russian city of Novokuznetsk. Read more »

Holy Scary Car Crash: Daewoo Comes Flying Into Windshield


Can you imagine taking a relaxed drive on a city road with your family, minding your own business, and all of a sudden, seeing a car flying in from the other way - must be terrifying, right?

It certainly is and it happened to YouTube author Sky Kang from Taiwan last Sunday when a 71-year old driver fell asleep on the wheel of his Formosa Matiz (sold in other parts of the world under many different nameplates including Daewoo, Pontiac, Chevrolet and even FSO).

Driver Hits Two Birds With One Stone, Avoiding Traffic and Annoying his Female Passenger


One of the most annoying things than can happen to you behind the wheel is to carry a back or front passenger seat "driving instructor".

Despite having shared and watched hundreds of Russian dash-cam videos, our knowledge of the language is extremely limited, so we have no idea what the female passenger of this clip is saying – bilingual readers are more than welcome to translate in the comments, though, to be frank, it does sound like the universally understood nag-talk…

This is How You Swiftly Break Up a Road Rage Fight in Russia


We've watched more road-rage fights in Russia and the surrounding countries from  dash-board cameras than we care to remember, but we think this one stands out from the crowd for one very simple reason: the incident was killed before it started getting violent.

Confused? Give us a minute to explain, if you haven’t already made the jump across the break to watch the video.

Are These Ukrainian Drivers Lucky, Talented or Stupid?


When it comes to road incidents that play out well, it's often the result of luck of the moment, talent behind the wheel or a combination of the two. In regards to the following incident that occurred in Ukraine and which was captured on a dash-cam of one of the involved drivers, we would say it's the latter. Read more »

Out of Control Russian Bus Smashes Into Four Vehicles


A number of road users, including several children, received an unwanted surprise today (Friday, June 28) in the Russian city of Irkutsk when an out of control bus slammed into three cars and a small truck.

As seen from the dash-cam of a car that was not involved, the bus veered onto the sidewalk and came crashing into the other vehicles at speed. According to a report from the local news station Irk, rather amazingly, everyone made it out alive and only a couple of motorists and passengers suffered some very minor injuries that were treated on the spot.

Who's at Fault Here in This Road Rage Curse Fest? [NSFW]


Most of us spend a heck of a lot of time on the road behind the wheel of a car or the handles of a motorcycle. Sometimes we're not in the best of moods, which is when ugly things can happen.

Filmed in the UK from the helmet camera of a motorcyclist, this video shows the squabble between the former and a driver of an older generation Honda Civic saloon on the road, which evolves into a lesson on British curse words (hence the NSFW tag).

Moron Alert: Nissan GT-R Driver Crashes Right Into a Lexus RX


Yes, it's head-scratching, Russian dash-cam time again and here we have a foolish and impatient driver, who after this incident, shouldn't really be allowed behind the wheel of any car, let alone one of the likes of the Nissan GT-R, for a very long time.

While all other motorists were patiently waiting for the red light, the person driving the tuned Japanese sports car wanted to play smart guy violating a basic road rule that says stay on your side of the road, especially when there's a double line.

Scary as Hell: Motorbike Rider and Passenger Take to the Air After Hitting Car


Warning: Some viewers may find the following video disturbing.

Running a red light is all the more dangerous if you’re on a motorcycle. A car will have no trouble displacing the weight of a motorbike or scooter, and either it or you may be thrown far away, especially if you were really gunning for that light, and you end up going a bit too fast through the intersection.

What a Tool! Infiniti FX Driver Hits and Runs Away on Russian Highway


Things really have a tendency to get out of hand in Russia, and a highway crash turns into a felony as an Infiniti FX driver rams a Mitsubishi Colt from behind, launching it into the inner guard rail, causing it to crash quite severely. However, the luxurious Japanese SUV is not seriously damaged, and it speeds away from the scene, disappearing in the distance. Read more »

This is What You'd Call Less Than Inch from Death


There's no way of telling if this motorcycle rider from Russia was fully aware of how terribly close he came to death or an extremely long visit to a local hospital at best, but if he ever does check out this dash-cam video on the interwebs, he'll sure as hell thank Lady Luck for making it out completely unscathed.

Russian Driver Makes a Run for it After Speeding Past Cop, First on Wheels, Then on Foot…


Unless you have the eyesight of a hawk or a radar detector, there's not much you can do after a police officer locks you in on his radar. Basically, you have two options; slow down and wait for a cop to pull you over and hand you a pink slip himself, or continue on your way and wait for the ticket to arrive at your home.

For some unexplained reason, the driver and passenger of the dash-cam equipped car who flew by a Russian policeman who clocked them going 180km/h (112mph) on his radar, chose a third option…

Girls Falling from the Sky in Korea? Not Exactly…


In any other case, it could be God's gift to man, but not this time, and the only reason we're using a lighter tone on this otherwise painful and dangerous accident is that the woman involved made it out alive.

In the first half of the video that contains footage from the front-facing vehicle dash-cam, we see a young woman, purportedly in Korea, landing on top of the car's bonnet and falling onto the road before she gets up.

Porsche Cayenne Driver Hits Car and Continues Like Nothing Happened


Needless to say, no one should ever leave the scene of an accident unless, of course, it's a matter of life or death - for example, we can't blame this Los Angeles woman for leaving.

The actions of this particular driver in the Porsche Cayenne are inexcusable. Not only does he (or she) enter the opposite lane of a double line road placing many motorists in danger, but the driver also crashes into a black sedan (possibly a Lada) to make room and then stomps on the gas pedal and drives away!

Surprise! The Real Party Crashers Captured on Dashcam


I can't quite make the license plates from the cars seen in this video, but it looks like this incident happened in the U.S. or in Canada. The tan metallic Infiniti is the first of the cars you see, and along with a white Volvo XC90, it's trying to cross an intersection at roughly the same time, from opposite directions. Read more »

Driver Slams Into a Pole, Quickly Jumps Out to Visit Outdoor Bathroom


I guess if you have to go, you have to go. As scary as this accident may look, the way it turned out can only cause laughter. Allow us to explain.

The driver of the vehicle with the dash-cam noticed an Opel Corsa from the opposite lane veering off the road before crashing into a light pole. Instead of driving away, he did the right thing and turned around to provide help, but what he saw upon arriving at the scene was not what he expected…

Alert Truck Driver Foils Suicide or Grisly Insurance Scam Attempt


We live in a truly crazy world when people throw themselves under the wheels of a large truck for whatever reason. Who knows if the man featured in the video jumped under the carriage of the fuel-tank lorry to kill himself or attempt a twisted and utterly moronic insurance scam, but we're glad with the outcome.

Daughter Witnesses Crash While Dad Was Offering Valuable Driving Advice!


Talk about a crazy coincidence and a lesson well learned! While driving on the road, a Russian father was explaining to his young daughter what she should do in the event they were involved in an automobile accident.

"A car crash is very scary, Yulia," says the father, according to the translation offered in the video (if it's wrong, tell us about it in the comments). "You understand why I am telling you all this, yes?" he asks his daughter who replies "Yes".
