I’ve gotten away from the basics of this blog—Russian automobile traffic—recently, and my tumblarity has suffered because of it. But no more. Careful readers will remember the photos from earlier this summer of the President of Ingushetia’s blown-up car. A little while ago they released this video of the incident. It takes a while to get going. Watch for the black Honda turning around on the road. Then the presidential motorcade appears. Then it looks like nothing is happening, and then it does.
The president was airlifted to a Moscow hospital about three blocks from my house and fixed right up (though not by me). He’s back at work this week.
