Mercedes S-Class driver loses control of his car, ends up in the trees [video]

It seems that Russia has found a new spectacular way of chopping down trees by using big luxury cars – we emphasize on spectacular, because it’s neither effective, nor inexpensive.

A Mercedes-Benz S-Class driver tries to overtake a car ahead of him the S-Class’ rear-end snaps and sends itself right into a bunch of trees on the side of the road. We’re guessing ESP was either turned off or simply not working.

Cars would usually stop when they hit a tree, but not this one; due to the Mercedes’ heavy weight and the speed it was carrying, it managed to chop a couple of trees right down. Check it out below.
