I was driving on the federal road and a car was leaving the federal road and heading towards the village. I was driving, the traffic light was green (traffic light – approximately), but at the time of impact the yellow light was already flashing. Three cars were damaged, I took it all on myself, I did everything I had to do, even though I don’t think it was my fault.

– It had no effect. The main thing is that everyone is alive and well. Iron comes and goes.
