Sad to hear of the loss of four lives on this aircraft. RIP.  :'(

Amazingly, the crash was filmed from someone's car. If they had been in the right hand lane, it could have been a lot worse:

It is amazing that no one was killed by flying debris on that motorway! :o :o :o

Flying Russian has been a gamble for some decades now. :(

reminds me of a story a guy i used to work with told me...he took an internal flight across russia and one of the escape exits had rope tied to the door mechanism and wrapped around the nearest seat to keep it shut :o

Not uncommon now for cars to have Cameras in Cars in Eastern Europe now for proof for the Insurance Co's, also not uncommon for someone to hit and then just drive off even though it wasn't their fault!, is that just what happened to the driver that got hit by the Planes Wheel?
