In Udmurtia, a Lada Granta collided with the facade of the Izhevsk Assembly College during the night of May 8 into May 9. The force of the impact left the car severely damaged and overturned. Local observers on VKontakte, under the public name Evil Izhevsk, reported that the vehicle was misidentified in some posts as a Priora, and noted that the car traveled along Gorky Street, crossed the intersection with Kirov Street where the college sits, and then struck the entrance area of the institution.

When emergency crews arrived, four people were found inside the vehicle. Three were able to exit the car without assistance, while the fourth required specialized rescue equipment to be freed. Photos from the scene show rescuers removing the roof to access the occupants, a procedure that highlights the severity of the crash and the challenges of vehicle extraction in such situations.

The images convey a stark impression of the collision, yet there were no fatalities reported in this incident. All injured individuals were transported to medical facilities for evaluation and treatment. At the time of reporting, officials had not released further details about the causes or sequence of events that led to the crash.

  • In a separate report from Tver, a truck driver failed to see a passenger car, entering a blind zone and triggering a chain of events that echoed the dangers of limited driver visibility.
  • Discussions about the incident appeared on Odnoklassniki, where participants shared their observations and questions about road safety and vehicle responses in urban intersections.
