Russian Driver Causes Bike to Crash, Drives Away

Watching videos like this one makes us wonder whether the hit and run/ cause a crash and run is mandatory road behavior in Russia and the former Soviet space.
While we didn't realize exactly what was going on with the rider in this piece of footage, watching it several times enlightened us. The motorcyclist tries to pass the car riding behind the large truck, and most likely, pass the truck as well.

At least this is what we reckoned seeing the bike trying to pass the two vehicles quite widely. However, the car driver wanted to pass the truck, too, but cared not to take a quick peek into any of the mirrors. So the moron cuts the bike, forcing the rider to brake violently to avoid crashing into the car.

And we all know what happens when "motorcycle", "brake" and "violent" are in the same sentence: the bike loses grip and crashes off the road. While can cam see the rider of on his feet in just instants, the car drives away, not caring about leaving behind a crashed bike and a man who could possibly be in urgent need of medical treatment or even already dead.

It looks like the guy was not alone, as we though we saw another bike in front. And we really hope the police caught the idiot driver!
