Some good driving, a little luck, and some serious carnage.

That video give me chills. Mainly because a lot of that is how the idiots drive on Parley's!

Do all Russian cars have dash-cams?

Do all Russian cars have dash-cams?

Many/most of them.

"Russia's traffic police, which, Galperina writes, "is known throughout their land for brutality, corruption, extortion and making an income on bribes."

"In addition to authorities they deem untrustworthy, Russian drivers must contend with the possibility of being attacked by another driver. The below video compiles fights between drivers that feature crowbars, slapping, punching, and worse."

No guns and all powerful cops. Pefect!

I thought another big reason for the ubiquitous Russian dash cam was the constant threat of phony personal injury lawsuits.

There are gangs that try and get hit by cars so as to extract big injury settlements from the mark.

One thing is certain: the internet has improved greatly since Russians have started buying video cameras.

Yeah, that vid of the meteor is wicked! Especially the third one. It looks like it's going to come right down on the car.

We had a big-ish (not 10-tons!!!)one go over Wyoming and Utah a couple of years ago. It lit up the sky with a greenish hue as bright as day.
