That tunnel entrance should be redesigned, it seems people are either coming in too fast to navigate the turn or there's something wrong with the surface.

Scary stuff
 
That's pretty scary. The stretch where all the accidents are occurring seems pretty straight (slight curve) so it makes me wonder why so many lose control. I'd be interested to know which tunnel this is.
 
Hmm, interesting….It just goes to show that motorists are idiots of the roads!;)
 
The construction engineers must realize that tunnel is a death trap of the highest order what morons, to keep it open!:confused:
 
I believe that is a Russian tunnel. This particular tunnel is famous for it's rolling contents speeding and crashing.
I have no idea where in Russia it actually is, i would guess Moscow.

I was thinking exactly that. It seemed like cars were going fine and then all of a sudden began to swerve... My best guess would be something slick on the road surface, but surely someone would have caught it. Or perhaps it's snowing out and there is ice in the tunnel?
 
Now I know that long tunnels actually have a MINIMUM speed limit but some of those speeds look a tad excessive!!
