In the world of Russian BMW drivers, those with Lambo doors have a special place. It's called the 'oncoming lane'. That's where they like to spend more of their time on the road, it seems, at least from the next video.
As you're about to see, in Russia, laws are different and you're allowed to overtake, even if the lane you're in is marked by a continuous line. What's a continuous line anyway? It's useless as long as it's not a wall.

We're being ironic, of course, but unfortunately for the driver of white car that this gentleman crashed into things got really serious, really quick. The E46 driver decided to go for a prolonged overtake and probably thought that the driver of the white car would get out of his way.

It turns out he didn't and the crash that resulted looks pretty bad. Fortunately, we at least know that the passenger is safe, since he appears to be getting out of the car right after the impact. As for the other occupants of the cars, we don't have any info at the moment but feel free to let us know in case you find anything.
