Great Reactions Save Life!

We have seen many scenes where drivers have had life-saving reactions, and this example, from Russia, is one of the best. So this red Lada is just driving along, and as it gets near a crosswalk, a man sprints out in front of the car.
Instead of pulling right, which is what most drivers would have done - an action which would have equated to the car hitting the guy, the driver pulls left, then right, avoiding contact with both the unweary pedestrian, as well as other cars.

Also, we say that if the driver had been behind the wheel of a car with proper suspension, the scene would have been far less dramatic, as part of the drama in this video is due to the rudimentary design of the rear suspension which lets the car flop about quite uncontrollably.
