doesn't look too accidental to me. Would you run?

Then again he was on a 20 hour shift

It saddens me when something like this happens and a few people get a lob on at the idea it might have been terrorism.

Exactly my thought's when I saw it. Why would the driver run off as well?

He will have a tough time convincing people that that was accidental

Russia has a history of covering up terrorist attacks for political gain. It wants a safe and successful world cup so it's certainly an aspect that should be considered rather than accepting the Russian statements.

Some of the UK broadsheets are certainly taking that view:

"Russia’s state media has been slow in reporting the incident, and some ignored it altogether. In the past, media outlets that are loyal to the government have maintained news blackouts for terror-related incidents. Kremlin officials have praised such behaviour, unlikely to be totally voluntary, saying it avoids copycat crimes."

Just watching that video on the Independent it's pretty inconsistent with his justification of what happened. As you say, it looks very deliberate.

It just looks so weird to me.

If it was an “Act of terror” then the bloke is useless. He seems to be driving along normally before hitting a traffic jam and then losing the plot.

It all just looks very strange. It’s as if he can’t face another traffic jam, loses his mind and takes his frustrations out by mowing over a load of passers by.

Agree with that. The actions look erratic and spontaneous.

I've no idea whether it's 'terror' related, but it certainly looks deliberate.


Interesting point form SB that we may never find out in any case if Russia want to present a squeaky clean image to the world whilst the WC spotlight is on them.

Guess it depends on interpretation of terrorism. It's clearly deliberate and I expect terrorised the victims and others.

Accidental car accidents happen more than terrorist incidents and it's not the first time we've seen a traffic accident false alarm with lots of assumptions made before the motives or details have been clear.

Not that I'm saying it's terror related, but do you honestly believe this was an 'accident'?

Are you honestly expecting to get clear, detailed and even accurate information from the Russian authorities?

Exactly so I don't see how my post was "besides the point".

Essentially you are saying that if a government never releases any information then people can't draw any conclusions. I think some things can be derived from the video for instance.

Guess we disagree on this one :).
