  • Video shows minivan sliding down towards several parked cars in Russia
  • It hits several cars who in turn starts careering down the snowy hill
  • As pedestrians rush to get out of the way, the van finally hits a tractor 

While snow on the roads in Britain is a nigh-on guarantee for traffic chaos, it is rare that we would see anything like in this video. 

It was reportedly filmed in Russia at an unknown recent date, and shows a street covered in snow.

Several cars are parked on the snowy slope when suddenly a mini bus comes sliding down from the top of the hill.

Pedestrians rush to get out of the way of the oncoming van when it smashes sideways into a small blue car.

The minibus has such speed that it only bumps the smaller car out of the way and continues on down the slope.

On the way down it hits another car, which also sets off down the hill.

Witnesses can be heard shouting in the background, but there is no stopping the van, and as it carries on it crashes into a tractor.

One of the cars it hit on the way down then comes into view, with the driver unable to stop it.

Together the van, the tractor and the other car carry on down the road while witnesses chase after them.

It is not known if anyone was injured during any of the crashes.
