OK, so there are some Russian driving incidents in here as well, but I’ve not got a separate category for that!
Compilation of dashcam videos (titled as Russian, though I think a few are from other countries) –
Almaty (Kazakhstan’s old capital city) lane abuse (drivers deciding they are in too much of a rush to stay on their side of the road) –
Stopping Almaty lane abuse 🙂 (I’m impressed with the guy’s attitude, but unless he has a lot of money to pay for repairs, and a weapon in the car to scare off any nutters not wanting to return to their side of the road, I can’t help fearing for his safety) –
Aktau road rage (The bibib page seems to apportion blame a little one-sidedly in this one) –

Excellent! Particularly like the one playing Don’t Stop Me Now! “…cause I’m having a …. CRUNCH!”

Amazing vid (the top one), suitable adjectives : outrageous, shocking, and well, hilarious ( the car carrying the hay is just great … and the guy who nearly gets hit on the pedestrian crossing, followed by kicking the bumper in and subsequently quickly picking up the piece he kicked off …
Pity no dash cams around for this one, a car on a roof (no, not on its roof ! on a house roof !!!!!!!!!!!!) — how the h** ..

Should make for an interesting insurance claim!

I missed the audio part (most videos I get free time to watch when the kids are having a nap), plus I’m assuming some of the Russian words shouted out would be bad for Anna/Tim to learn 🙂

I am never driving in Russia. Never.

Left a comment on one of your posts, re smart quotes and changing https to http, couldn’t see a “your comment is awaiting moderation” type message, so wanted to make sure you’d seen it.

Oh, I didn’t see any comments. I see my comment fields formats are all screwed up. And I do need to go update all my plugins. Maybe try again? Unless yours was the one “Great Post, but I see you don’t have the up to the date SEO techniques. I can to help you with that. Click here…”

Basically, edit the http://www.englishadvantage.info/activitygame/what-happened-here-another-voicethread-mystery/ post, change the fancy quotation marks to ” and replace the https to http throughout, and the embed will work again 🙂

Oh, and if it looks fine to you, either log out, or if you’re using Chrome, open a new incognito window. Check the post again. If it still looks fine to you, could you let me know, as it means I’ve got something weird going on this end!
