Lada Ends Up Upside Down on Russian Bridge

If you have to make an emergency stop, don`t, whatever you do, stop your car on the any of the lanes where cars are supposed to drive, at speed, because it may end up being the last parking maneuver you will ever make. In this video, a Russian driver parks his Citroen Berlingo/Peugeot Partner on the side of the road.
However, this is not the end of the story, as the road just happens to be on a rather large bridge, with six lanes of traffic (three for each way). You don`t see the white van at the beginning of the video, but what you do see is a red Lada, which at some point changes lanes, only to discover the badly-parked vehicle, when it is far too late to do anything.

The Lada driver pulls left, yet it is too little, too late, and he hits the van, launching the Russian sedan into the air, only for it to land on its roof. The moral? Never park your car on a bridge, as there is simply nowhere for the other cars to go around you, and who knows, somebody may end up in the water!
