You’ve probably met a guy like this driver on the freeway, when you have to overtake a slow truck, get on the left lane and suddenly there is another car behind you coming fast and flashing you like it had no brakes. Sometimes, this intimidating maneuver works, and the bastard clears his way of slow vehicles, but sometimes it don’t. Like the case we have here.

The accident happened near Yaroslavl city in Russia, where a van (or truck, we can’t say, but judging of its high-mounted dash cam, it has to be) proceeded to overtake a slow truck. What you can’t see, is that a driver like the one mentioned above was coming fast from behind and didn’t wait for his lane to clear. He tried to pass the filming vehicle through the small gap between it and the middle lane divider.

He failed, as he smashed the rail and was thrown on the other side of the road in the ditch.
