I found this hilarious... 25 craziest Russian Dash Cam GIFs, please click on link and check them out


Do you want to know how crazy living in Russia is? Weird # happens so often that people drive around with dash cams just to capture it. We can't even fathom what it it'd be like to see so many freak occurrences that we'd be confident enough that we'd see something else to go out and buy the technology to capture it. Like, "Oh man, I just saw a tank burst onto the road but didn't have a camera. I'll be more prepared next time. While we try and make sense of wacky Russia, you go ahead and watch the 25 Craziest Russian Dash GIFs.

Minus the tank and maybe a few others, I see stuff like that all the time as a police officer in America.

You would be amazed at the things you see when your driving around for 12 hours a day.

I can only imagine... The whole gun pointing to change lanes seems a little extreme, LOL

Insurance fraud capital of the world.
It's why so many of them have dash cams. Russian neighborhoods in brooklyn are sort of like this.

Hmmm... Interesting, I didn't even think that. The story just writes that there's so many crazy things happening on Russian roads nowadays that people carry dash cams to try to catch it on recording, because many would never believe the stories being told...

The article is hyping it up. There has been many articles about how the cameras are so popular there because of the amount of insurance fraud. I think we would catch stuff like that here too if dashcams were in use as much. I know we would see a lot more cases of police corruption.

Some of those are incredible, some terrifying and some just odd and hilarious.
I bet "Russia's Wildest Police Videos" is a riot!

I doubt we would ever see Tanks crossing the street or a helicopter flying just above the expressway... But yes, I will agree with you that if more cars here in the US had dash cams, they would likely catch some crazy crap too.

Lol, I never would've thought getting smoked by a car could be remotely considered mundane. But in Russia, cars don't hit you. You hit cars.

Haha, yes! I'm sure vodka plays a factor in a lot of these GIFs... Especially the ones where the guys are hit by cars and don't seem to feel it...

Most insurance companies in Russia require you do that a dash cam.as part of the policy. This is because if you are hurt and make an insurance claim in Russia, they pay out immediately and investigate afterwards whether you actually qualified.

It must be nice having an insurance company willing to pay out immediately... Here in the US you need to fight for every cent and still that process doesn't happen anywhere close to immediate..

Anyways, I'm glad the system is like that there or we wouldn't have some of these hilariously crazy GIFs
