Nice poster and good to know the translation.

I must have watched 1000 Russian car, truck and motorbike accident on youtube on the weekend... addictive viewing... luckily no gore! I can see why there were warning posters. I dont know where to start to describe what I think of Russian drivers after watching those!

Steve..

The same can be said for the driving in China. It might be worse. I came across a site that showed clips from the cameras that are mounted along roadways.. the number of people that got hit and/or killed is astounding and shocking. And more times than not, the drivers just continue on their way.  :-X
