To be entirely just, the people who are responsible for the safety of drivers and pedestrians in the city where this video was recorded (possibly Russia) did one heck of a lousy job fencing the gigantic hole on the road, but still, the person steering the Nissan Qashqai should have been more patient.

Instead of waiting in line with the other cars in traffic, the motorist wanted to take a short cut around the minivan, which sent the Nissan crossover face first in the huge hole in the asphalt.

No human appears to have been injured, but the Japanese model will surely need a trip to the dealer for repairs.
