All Russian dash cams, all the time.

According to an article I read today, Russia has 1/6 the number of cars on the road as the US but has twice the number of road deaths. Add to that the fact that every driver has a dash cam to cover their asses when something happens and you have some pretty crazy video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature...&v=T8UFc1UNgwI http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature...&v=jxRMrx7E678 http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature...&v=kM_2j_ngQIY

The Daily Show did a segment about that last night. The best parts were the guys trying to fake injuries by throwing themselves on stopped vehicles.

The second one posted above is scary. I sometimes think about how many miles we drive daily with cars coming in the other direction just feet from our vehicles and sit in amazement at how this doesn't happen much more often. Whether it be mechanical failure, driver inattentiveness/recklessness or even malice/insanity on the other driver's part.
