Mercedes G Wagen Fail On Snow Covered Road

And your point is?

Looks to me like driver error.

* Too fast
* Snow tires?
* Off line (moved into the snow on the roadway)
* Hit brakes
* Likely bad steering too

Should have been labeled DRIVER FAIL

Like the others that have posted, I do not see an equipment failure. I do however see a driver fail, due to a multitude of reasons(also mentioned beforehand):

- over confidence
- over speed for conditions
- over correcting during a drift
- tapping brakes instead of letting off throttle
- driver inexperience
- improper tires for conditions?
- too much throttle input
- too little driver input for conditions

Doesn't matter how good your rig is if you don't know how to drive it. Technology still can't fix stupid.

That does look intentional, lots of acceleration followed by a stab of brakes on snow/ice? In real world accident scenario I would expect over rotation and a right side impact, not an understeer event where the front washes out & the far wall gets hit. How you say "insurance fraud" in Russian? Ha!
