Government official cars either closing roads at will or violating traffic laws and placing regular drivers at risk has become something of an everyday reality in Russia. Dig around the web and you can find thousands of videos on the subject.

This clip, which was sent to us by Carscoop reader Alex Vasiliev, shows a parade of government vehicles passing a central road in downtown Moscow at warp speed while two ambulances wait.

The person who shot the video, “Aleshru“, says that the two ambulances had their lights and sirens on but shut them off just as the police closed down the road, and opened them as soon the government cars passed through. Hop over the jump to watch the video for yourself.
