Russian Driver Can’t Wait 2 Seconds to Overtake - Crashes Into 18-Wheeler

Some drivers just don’t seem to understand that driving fast, in order to reach one’s destination quicker just isn’t worth the accident risk. You may gain a few minutes, at best, if you drive quickly, and for a long period of time, but you risk a lot when doing so, while also burning more fuel.
This Russian driver overtakes one truck, then when he finds himself behind another, and with a vehicle coming the other way, he decides that overtaking on the right side is the right thing to do - it wasn’t. He ends up crashing into the back of a badly-parked 18-wheeler trailer.

The impact is quite violent, as the car’s bonnet gets flared upward considerably in the crash. The driver lets out a now common foul Russian word, just to let everybody who was watching know that he was OK.
