Video: Dash-cam captures the moment a car spontaneously combusts on Ukrainian road

The poor car just had enough...

The poor car just had enough…

Dash-cams catch a lot of weird stuff on the roads, mostly on Russian roads mind you, but this time around we’ve got footage from the Ukraine that shows a fairly old motor just giving up and erupting into a fireball without warning.

The old car in question gets stuck behind slow moving traffic in the middle of a crossroad when the engine explodes and it doesn’t take long before the entire front end is engulfed in flames.

Thankfully, the driver didn’t look to be injured in the incident, but we’re sure he wishes the car didn’t clap out right on a crossroad. Morto for him
