Hyundai Accent Violently Slams into SUV in Russia

The very-common problem of not looking properly, before proceeding onto a larger road, from a smaller one. Cars on the larger road always travel faster, and, especially in Russia, tend not to brake in time, as they rely on the fact that they have right of passage.
This Russian driver, driving an SUV with a dash-mounted camera, ventures onto a larger avenue, and gets rammed violently from the side, by a speeding Hyundai Accent. The impact is quite severe, and the SUV is hurled with some force. The Accent driver ran a red light, and the result is plain to see.

The passengers of the SUV were undoubtedly protected by the fact that they were in an SUV, and the Hyundai driver may have sustained more severe injuries, as a full-frontal impact can send a lot of energy through the passenger cell, in the event of a crash.
