Vladimir Putin's Favorite Chauffeur Dies In Moscow After Head-On Crash

Vladimir Putin's official BMW 7 Series, a vehicle which Russia’s President uses while he is in The Motherland, was totaled in Moscow following a high-speed crash.

The current President of Russia was not onboard, as he was attending the G20 Summit in China. However, his favorite chauffeur, a man whose name was not given to the press, died in the impact.

The black BMW 7 Series was driving on the Kutuzovsky Avenue in Russia’s capital city, Moscow, when a Mercedes-Benz CLS struck it.

As you can witness in the video below, the CLS was traveling at a high rate of speed, and had already lost control when it collided with the BMW 7 Series driven by the chauffeur with over 40 years of experience behind the wheel.

The impact area was on the driver’s side of the German limousine, and Russian media reports that the sole occupant, the chauffeur, was killed instantly.

As The Daily Mail reports, there is no news regarding the driver of the Mercedes-Benz CLS. The same publication confirms that the 7 Series is registered to the Federation Council, which is Russia’s equivalent of Senate.

The Kutuzovsky Avenue was subjected to a massive traffic jam, as the cleanup operation took multiple hours, and the Boulevard was closed immediately after the accident. The avenue in question is a major one in Moscow, and has eight lanes in total, four for each direction of travel.

This accident goes to show that not even the most experienced drivers are totally safe from crashes, and serves as an example for those that believe that the seatbelt is not necessary at the speeds usually employed in the city. Unfortunately, impacts as violent as these are hard to survive for any human being, no matter how safe their cars are.

Russia’s roads are no strangers to violent accidents, and this one shows the world that it could happen to anyone, no matter how powerful or experienced they were. Be sure to remind your acquaintances of that fact the next time they mention speeding in one of their stories.
