This is what happens when you watch one too many viral YouTube videos with Saudi Arabian drifters flogging their Chevys and Hyundais on scorched roads and believe you can do the same with a Lada Priora – not that it’s the car’s fault here.

Reportedly filmed in the Republic of Dagestan, a federal subject of Russia located in the North Caucasus region, the clip starts off rather promising as we see a handful of Priora sedans, all finished in white, dancing around the highway.

You could easily mistake it for some kind of stunt-like regional commercial for the first six seconds, but then it happens…and one of the cars humps the metal barriers before smashing into a metal pole.

So kids, did you learn a lesson here about mimicking what you see on the internet?
