Back in 1994, when the first Need for Speed game was launched, everyone was enthralled. It was 2003, when Need for Speed Underground was released and the world seemed to go nuts over speed and tuning cars. Most of us got over it but some people (as you're about to see) are still hung up on those games.
Unfortunately for us, some drivers think they are above the law and that if something is possible inside the virtual reality it's also doable in the real world. These two guys found out the hard way.

While racing down one of Russia's highways, a BMW X5 M and an Audi Avant of some sort (we thinks its the S6 Avant) decide to go for the same lane, at a terribly high speed.

The end result? Lots of damaged cars (one even flipped over, you can see it in the right corner of the image), probably hours of delayed traffic on the highway and, fortunately, no victims.

What should we learn from this? Whilst it may seem fun to slalom between slower cars on the highway (and we can't stop you from doing it) you really should be considering the risks you're putting yourself through and the dire consequences your acts might have on other, innocent people.
