An incident on a tour bus in Sochi raised tensions when a driver behaved inappropriately, triggering a disturbance inside the cabin. Reports circulated via the Telegram channel “Typical Sochi.”

Tourists claimed they were traveling from Adler to AquaLoo water park on July 8 when the driver, driving an Ikarus coach that appeared crowded, accelerated along a winding route. Witnesses described the speed as reckless, especially given the dense passenger load. When fellow travelers asked him to slow down, the driver allegedly responded with crude language. The situation escalated as he challenged a male passenger to a duel, according to the report.

Another detail cited by passengers was a noticeable smoke odor aboard the bus. It remained unclear whether anyone on the bus contacted authorities in the wake of the incident.

In a separate development, footage filmed near Moscow showed a public confrontation involving a well-known blogger, Askhab Tamaev. The clip captured Tamaev smacking a young man who had shouted the phrase “This is my car,” a line often used by the blogger in his videos. Tamaev was seen driving a turquoise Lamborghini as a crowd of fans gathered nearby outside Moscow, drawing attention to the influencer’s high-profile presence in online circles.

Askhab Tamaev, at 23, has amassed millions of followers by producing content centered on cars and online clashes. His visibility has made him a frequent figure in discussions about social media influence and the behavior of public personalities in Russia and beyond.

Earlier, Tamaev faced criticism after a separate incident in Moscow in which a teenager was slapped, an episode that drew numerous comments about the responsibilities that come with fame and the way public figures interact with their audiences. The episode contributed to ongoing conversations about accountability among bloggers with large platforms.
