A shocking new video has emerged showing the moment Vladimir Putin’s presidential chauffeur was killed in a crash in Moscow.
Captured by a CCTV camera on Kutuzovsky Avenue, this clip shows the moment the Mercedes-Benz CLS driver looses control of the car and smashes head-on into the BMW 7-Series being driven by Putin’s favorite driver.
Interestingly, the video reveals that the CLS driver was not only speeding moments before the crash but also travelling in the off-limits middle lane of the busy road. When cresting the small left bend in the road, the rear-end of the CLS begins to step out with a puff of smoke from the rear tires or brakes.
It then continues to drift sideways until it collided directly with the 7-Series, killing its driver immediately. In the preceding seconds, dozens of drivers can be seen stopping and rushing to the aid of the drivers.
