Mound of Snow Spells the End of the Journey for Lada Driver

For a brief period last year, we were getting lots of very scary failed overtaking videos from Russia, where drivers chose the worst possible moments to pass another car. This is the first one of the kind we have posted in a while, and it is as unexplainable as they have always been.
The driver of a classic Lada estate triest to pass another car, yet he, for some reason, veers severely to the left, hitting a mound of compact snow, which sends the car flying into the air, in a cloud of powder. When everything settles down, the Lada can be seen on its roof, a good distance away from where the crash happened.

This is the case, because the car was traveling rather quickly, and it may actually have been a case of driving too quickly, and not paying attention to what was up ahead, then panicking and pulling hard to one side to avoid the crash with another car.
