Ford Mustang Driver in Russia Smashing Up Cars Stopped by Snowballs
The Internet is filled with footage of Ford Mustang drivers behaving foolishly, irresponsibly or just downright stupidly, to the point that it's become a meme of its own. However, even the myriad failed Cars and Coffee departure videos we've seen don't reach the levels of strangeness captured on camera in Russia recently, when a driver who went on a demolition derby-style rampage against parked cars in an allegedly rented 'Stang found himself ultimately stymied by a barrage of snowballs.
The video was shared on X by Anton Heraszczenko, a former member of the Ukrainian parliament. According to Heraszczenko, the incident all took place near a residential building in Kaliningrad, Russia, and the driver was reportedly intoxicated during the events seen below.
A video appeared on Russian Telegram channels showing a vehicle crushing 11 cars while cruising near a residential building in Kaliningrad, driver is reportedly a soldier of the Russian "special military operation." He rented a Mustang vehicle and drove it around…

The clip starts with a black S550-generation Mustang sliding down a snowy hill and into a Mercedes-Benz G-Class. The car then accelerates around a curve and sideswipes a parked car. The road is covered in snow, and it is a Mustang, so it would be possible to believe that the driver simply took the curve too fast and lost control.
But then things turn truly strange. The driver accelerates head-on into another parked car, reverses, and drives farther down the parking lot. Then he puts the car in reverse again and backs into another parked car. The Mustang struggles for traction, but eventually the car accelerates away, only to drive head-on into yet another car. He backs up again and continues to drive through the parking lot.
The street justice begins when a man in a blue sweater starts hurling snowballs at the Mustang driver. The first snowball appears to miss, but the windows of the Mustang are down and the man in the sweater seems determined; he grabs more snow and continues hurling projectiles, quickly joined by other residents.
Eventually, the driver jumps out of the Mustang via the passenger side door, but the altercation continues. The sweater-wearing man continues his snowball assault as a man in a red jacket starts swinging at the driver. About a half dozen people wind up joining the fray, one of whom trips the driver. After a few moments, the driver gets up and walks off.
Thankfully, despite all the chaos and destruction, no one appeared to be seriously injured... but we're sure the insurance claims adjusters will have fun watching the footage.
