Two people lost their lives when cars crashed head-on during Friday morning. The deadly crash happened at nine o'clock on Magistralnaya highway near the 120 kilometer mark. Police officers rushed to the scene after reports came through about the serious accident. A 39-year-old man driving a BMW crossed over into traffic coming toward him. He smashed straight into a VAZ car that a 66-year-old retired man was driving.
Both vehicles suffered massive damage from the powerful impact between them. The older driver of the domestic car died from his injuries right away. A passenger sitting behind the BMW driver also passed away from the crash. Police believe the BMW slipped sideways during a curve and could not stop the collision. Officers think the wet road surface made the car lose control around the bend.
Investigators started looking into what caused this terrible crash to happen. Police teams took pictures and measured skid marks left on the roadway. They also shared video footage that shows both damaged vehicles after the accident occurred. The images reveal the VAZ car sitting on the main road surface. The BMW ended up flipped over into a deep ditch beside the highway.
