Car Squashed by Truck in Russia

One of the biggest dangers of driving anywhere in the world is the fact that vehicle sizes have now have extremes at both ends. For example, a crash between a Suzuki Wagon R and a truck would be devastating for the driver of the smaller car.
However, if we were to swap the Suzuki with a Porsche Cayenne (a much bigger car which can be driven with the same category of drivers’ license), it could go both ways in terms of which of the two gets injured more severely.

This accident clearly shows how dangerous this difference of mass (and inertia can be), when an a distracted driver pulls into the road, forcing another driver who was merely driving along, straight in front of an oncoming truck, with severe consequences.
