Did I just watch someone die?
According to this the driver survived:

Happened in the village of Uryum in Eastern Russia.
probable location in google maps: https://www.google.com/maps/place/53%C2%B010'09.1%22N+118%C2%B007'00.0%22E/@53.1675162,118.1063825,2661m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m4!3m3!8m2!3d53.1691944!4d118.1166667?entry=ttu
River is the Shilka river, a branch of the Amur river.
Yaaaaaaay!
Don't worry, surviving in Russia is only a temporary issue. May this man one day succeed in his quest to solve this vexing problem.
Probably. That did not look good
I wonder if they had time to think “I shouldn’t have tried to drive across the bridge.”
In theory, they could get out if they rolled a window down before fully submerged or kicked through the back window.
