Version with subtitles:
Happened on May 24, 2015, around 7:40 am on route Perm-Yekaterinburg
36 years old driver of Toyota Highlander started overtaking two cars in heavy rain. While on the opposite lane he crashed head on into VAZ-2112. Three people died - 28 years old VAZ driver and two VAZ passengers aged 40 and 34 (34 years old died in the hospital). Four people were injured - 29 years old VAZ passenger and three Toyota passengers aged 34 (drivers wife), 6 (drivers son) and 5 (drivers daughter).
Toyota driver was not injured.
I'm not sure if this was an accident.

Wife asks him "What are you doing??" a second before the crash, and he seems to snap out of whatever spell he was under a split second beforehand.

I almost wonder if he had a seizure or something

I honestly think that he just zoned-out. It can happen to anyone, where he just spaced out for a few seconds, possibly looking out the window, or at the radio or something, and this was the unfortunate result.

I doubt that someone could zone out this bad, especially while overtaking. It's something that requires more activity than just following a straight road without much input; besides being on the left side of the road is unusual, it feels off, keeping you alert.
I'd also assume he had a stroke or something, or fell asleep for a second.

I hear what you’re saying, and agree with you, to a point. Unfortunately, your possession of the innate ability to be assertive and attentive is scarily lost on many. I wouldn’t put it past him having just zoned the fuck out for 3 seconds. Our ability to quantify and classify those actions are one of the reasons we’re still alive, and the people he collided with, aren’t.

Man, he's weaving in and out of the oncoming lane through the entire video so he can fucking blow the speed limit and pass everyone in the correct lane. The guy's just a prick who murdered 3 innocent people because he was in a hurry.

Did you hear his reaction in the split second before he hit? To me, that sounds like somebody snapping out of something too late to do anything about it.

That makes a lot of sense tbh. I really can’t explain it besides he thought he could overtake the other car or something. Such a weird thing to do.

Interesting too that he's the only one not injured/killed.

A "spell"? He's just an asshole driver, using the oncoming traffic lane as a passing lane. That's... that's not how driving works, precisely for this reason.
Sometimes, the explanation simply boils down to "The guy is a fucking asshole".
It's interesting to note that the asshole driver was uninjured from this crash which killed 3 other people. You know.... drunk drivers often survive horrific wrecks that kill everyone else involved, because the effects of alcohol can make you a little more resistant to the effects of a high speed impact. Wonder what any tests on the driver will turn up?
