We've recently stumbled upon this dash cam video of a Russian police 4x4 rolling over multiple times as a result of a seemingly insignificant incident. It's like watching a bad commercial for the merits of ESC, since this old vehicle is let down by its top-heavy attitude and lack of electronics.
The crash is caused by a Renault Clio who after making a lift turn at a junction wants to driven in the slow lane. He does put on the signals but fails to see the incoming 4x4 which swerves a bit and then flips over, hitting another car in front of it.

Because of the heavy steel structure the 4x4 is made from, the roof stays intact, but we suspect the occupants weren't too happy to be through around the cabin like that.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
