Stupid driver crossing in front of him, far too slowly. Wasn't the Vette driver's fault, as best I can tell. He may have been speeding (not sure) but this one's the fault of the person turning left too late, too slow.

Like the way the man tried to push the woman away first, before heading to safety.

No, no, no. That was the problem with the guy in this video - he DIDN'T drive around the Renault. We want to drive around them, not through them...

All I see is the crash. Not the red light the drunk in the corvette ran while the other car was turning left on the green arrow. I can't see any of this, of course, so I'll take my guess is as good as any other. But it's Russia where thousands of dashcam videos are taken and posted on line and this looks fairly typical.
