ha... this was making the rounds on the net a while back... as evidence of the russian drunk driving problem.

nice to know the true story.

can you believe that bus driver pulled it out???

[Belquar]

Could you imagine being a passenger in the back of that bus. Holy crap!!!!

After the bus though...the two trucks....I see the first truck, where does the second one come from. It was almost as if it came out of the wall. That was pretty wild.

Reminds me of Austin when it ices over once every 5 years.

Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice!!! !!

That'll buff right out.

I'm impressed by the use of turn signals by the folks who come upon the crashes and want to go around them. Now, if our local drivers would learn how to use them ... :stick

[BubbaZanetti]

i would never be a rounder in that tunnel :groovy

I am taking the above ground route next time...

Bus driving skills.

Yikes! Considering that two inches of snow will shut down the entire state of Alabama, I can see why it is illegal here.

I bet the bunch in the back was wide awake for the rest of the commute! :heh

EXACTLY. I replayed this many times, and where does that second truck come from? It just appears out of nowhere. One truck becomes two.. only after some collision. ..and it appears that as soon as you see the second truck, it's facing the wrong direction. How did the truck just materialize in the right lane, facing the wrong direction?

[RedBeemer]

I replayed that part several times and to me it looks like the second truck was comming up on the right and being as how two objects can not occupy the same space at the same time. But the wall theory is easier to belive. ;)
