VIDEO: Heated argument on frozen lake ends badly for unlucky Lada

November 15, 2016
Did the Lada car owner have it coming to him? More to the point, did the Lada car have it coming?

Put it all down to a bad day in the office for both Lada driver and tracked excavator operator.

Amusingly, the car driver kicks one of the excavator’s tracks in frustration. The machine operator’s response is possibly a tad over the top.

Amazingly, the ice stood up well to the beating that the Lada took.

The rest of the video has the usual tumbles, spills, misjudgements and down-right stupid mistakes of machine operators. Nobody appeared to have been injured in any inciden; just a little shaken, perhaps.
