A truck caused a major accident at an intersection during rush hour on Friday by apparently running a red light at full speed.
Footage of the incident — shot from the dashboard of a car that came just a few feet from also being involved in the crash — shows the truck slam into four cars waiting at a traffic light to turn left onto a wide road.
According to a description of the video, uploaded to YouTube by a user named Andrei Kosov, the truck's brakes had failed. The description also said that no one died in the accident. This information could not immediately be verified.
