Check Out This Tunnel!!!
This 3,150m tunnel in Russia is the longest in-city tunnel in Europe.
A river runs over the tunnel, and water leaks at some points.
When the temperature reaches -38ºC (like it did this winter),
the road freezes and the result in the attached video -
taken during a single day with the tunnel camera...
Watch The Video Below

That vids been around for a while, much better with that music though. What you talking about man!? Being a passenger on that bus would've kicked arse! All the thrills of a top notch amusement park with the practicality of public transport.

Old video and most of the incidents shown are caused by driver error not ice.
With the bus I don't know but many of them are caused by too much speed with someone cutting in front of the speeding vehicle.

Yeah. And did you notice how the motorist's first move was to indicate to try and get around them instead of getting out to check on the drivers. Ahh people are compassionate these days!

you press the little triangle button that looks like play on most cd players :P
(actually mine auto-played)
Back to the video though...
Most of the accidents were speed related, see that one of the guy flying up the left and a car pulled infront of him, slid sideways with noone to blame but himself.
I dont doubt that the road is slippery, the temperature wouldn't help and im sure there would be moisture on the road from such a long tunnel being underground and dripping water etc etc

The truck you can see changed lanes into the other truck pushing it into the wall. When the unseen truck hit the wall it bounced both trucks away from the wall with the result being what we see in the video.
Well, that's my thought anyway.
