Crash on a wet road

Footage of a serious crash was published by the Avtodor Telegram channel. According to the outlet Gazeta.Ru, the accident occurred on a wet road due to an improperly chosen speed. Judging by the video, the car was traveling in rainy conditions at about 150 km/h. Immediately after a turn, the car skidded, the driver completely lost control, and the vehicle left its trajectory and hit a support pole.

What remains unknown

At the time of publication, it was not reported whether the driver was injured or whether there were passengers in the car. The circumstances of the crash are being established. The Gazeta.Ru article also briefly mentions other incidents — in Tyumen, where a car thief hit a family of three at a crosswalk and fled, and in Ulyanovsk, where a car struck pedestrians on a median strip — however, these cases are not related to the crash on the wet road.
