"A minute after the accident happened, I looked at the asphalt, it really was black ice, they say everything was flooded with water!" "A video has spread around the country showing that the accident was caused by summer tires. As you can see, it got stuck in the tire!

In another video, a man narrowly escaped death. He is standing on the road and climbing over a fence when a car is flying towards him. This is Anton, one of the participants in a major traffic accident.
"It's great that my husband was saved. At the last minute, he climbed the fence. I didn't even mention the second person on the road. He was sent to hang a sign, but he barely survived. Yulia, the wife of the surviving participant in the accident, told Pro Goroda:
