As soon as the music started, I felt a little weird. I daren't even wonder what happened to the people in the car. Just awful, and who videoed it?

Hi Ms. Margaret,

I don't know who video's it(maybe the traffic control division) but its the Lefortovo Tunnel in Moscow. During the winter months the surface of the road takes on an icy veneer and catches many drivers of lorries, buses, and cars off guard. There is another youtube vid where you'll see an articulated bus whose rear section flails wildly from side to side and swiping the walls of the tunnel - its real ugly - I didn't want to post it.

Cheers,

CD :crazy:

Thank you CD, it sounds like it is lethal in winter. I can understand why you don't want to post the other one, sounds horrendous.


Have just seen the bus one, made me feel seasick.

Ms. Margaret,

Seasick...Man, if there were people aboard that bus...that would be a horror-ride.

Surprises me that a tunnel, which is protected, ices up but I guess Moscow has brutally cold winters so I shouldn't be surprised.
