The thing with ice and even worse, black ice is that you won’t notice it until it’s too late to do something about it, so when temperatures drop below the freezing point of water at 32° F or 0° C, the best you can do is slow down and be extremely careful – the opposite of what the driver of this classic Lada sedan did.

Obviously travelling faster than what he should have in these conditions, the driver stepped on ice and lost control of the car that crossed over the road slamming into the metal guardrails before it tumbled and landed on its top.

Scary indeed, but according to the person in the car with the dash-cam, who noted that the date on the clip is wrong as it occurred on April 1 (no joke), the driver of the Lada came out unscathed.

“A man came out of the car through the front windshield without panic but f..[explicit]… shocked. I asked him if I should call an ambulance, but he said he was all right,” said the author of the video on YouTube.
