We guess playing all those racing games on the PlayStation and Xbox finally paid off for this Russian man who displayed fantastic reflexes when a Lada Priora sedan came hurling into his lane.
We don’t have a clear view of how the first accident happened, but two possible explanations are that the driver of the Priora fell asleep / wasn’t paying attention and hit the tractor’s rear wheel, or the car fell into one of the many potholes seen on the video.
Regardless of how it happened, the Lada went rolling at high speed on the road heading straight towards the car of our protagonist who kept his calm and steered his vehicle between the Priora and the tractor saving his family.
The Google translation of the driver’s perspective of the accident is a bit wonky, but from what we understand, the young woman driving the Priora also lived to tell the tale.
