Have you all watched this? Think your commute is bad?

READ THIS BEFORE WATCHING THE ATTACHED VIDEO!


This tunnel is in Russia and is the longest in-city tunnel of Europe.

There is a river running over it and water leaks at some points. When the temperature reaches minus 38 degrees like it did this particular winter, the road freezes and the result is the attached video taken during A SINGLE DAY with the tunnel camera. Congratulations to the dual bus driver . This is better than turn 4 at Daytona.

Remember-- this is only ONE day of video.

2. Great video,but no way it's just one day.

*The damage would take hours to clear.

*The skidmarks on the road appear and disappear.

*Ditto for damage to the walls.

But like I said,a great video.That's one insane tunnel! :)

6. I'm with ya, forkboy

Crazy video, but there's no way that could all have happened in one day, unless they've got robots in the ceilings to do the cleanup!

3. That kind of thing flips me out.

I used to live on the snowy side of the Eisenhower Tunnel, and now I live on the sunny side of the Gotthard tunnel. I _hate_ driving through tunnels. :scared:

5. Well, I dig the song playing. And kudos to the bus driver for not flipping that thing.
