Truck rams Land Rover on highway - truck driver lies to the police, blaming the victim


Happened on June 10, 2020, at 4:37 pm on М-11 highway in Konakovsky District, Tver Oblast, Russia


33 years old man was driving DAF truck with Schmitz trailer towards Saint Petersburg.

40 years old man in his Land Rover was also driving in the same lane towards Saint Petersburg.

Truck crashed into the back of Land Rover, causing it to roll over and fell into pieces.

Land Rover driver wasn't wearing seatbelt and he died on spot.

At first the truck driver tried blaming the victim by saying that:

While DAF was overtaking Land Rover, the offroader lost control, crashed into a barrier and later into DAF's trailer.

His version was debunked by CCTV footage.

Seat belts save lives. I've had one save my life twice now.

First time in 2003 when my friend who just got his license ran head-on into a tree at 55+ mph.

Second time was 3 weeks ago when I wrecked on wet road, flipped the car twice.

Wear your seat belt.

In 1978, two friends of mine were doing 80 mph and hit the center divider and the car overturned. One got a scratch on his face and the other was decapitated. You can guess which one was wearing his seat belt. I've always worn my seat belt ever since.... Glad you're okay, btw.

Land Rovers don't seem to be that sturdy. Shoddy British engineering

Old model, back then they didn't put many safety provisions, just made it good for 4X4 use, and crappy Ford made engines

And tires as always untouched. Just make cars made of tires.
