True, mothers will always be there to protect their kids no matter what they do and how old they get, but, and this is a massive but, we find that a 30+ year old man running behind his mom for protection after he instigated a fight, somewhat embarrassing. Read more »

Lada Niva Gets in a Wet and Sticky Situation


As the temperatures warm up and the snow begins to melt in the northern hemisphere, it's time for youngsters to enjoy nature's beauty. For this group, it means heading to a river and trying out their off-road vehicles, perhaps more to impress their female friends than anything else. Read more »

Ferrari 458 Handbrake Freezes, Lada Niva Saves the Day


As beautiful and capable as they may be, Italian exotic supercars are quite temperamental and don't do well in extreme weather conditions. That said, by trying to operate a Ferrari 458 Italia in freezing temperatures and icy roads, you're really tempting your fate and…your bank account. Read more »

Lucky or Talented? Russian Truck Driver Avoids Crash in Style


The jury is still out on whether the protagonist of our latest Russian offbeat video had lady luck on his side or if he's that good behind the wheel of a truck, but either way, the save was impressive, to say the least.

Lada Driver Gets a Crash Lesson in Tailgating

You know You Shouldn't be Driving When…


We have watched this video several times and still cannot find a reasonable excuse for why the driver of the Lada Niva crashed into a stopped car on the opposite side of the road.

Even if the pedestrians crossing the road surprised the driver, we can't see why she (according to the YouTube poster) didn't stop her vehicle before it hit the Mazda3.

Head past the break to watch the incident as it was recorded from a dashboard mounted camera.
