This is the moment a Land Rover ploughs into a group of holidaymakers on a zebra crossing after the driver pressed the wrong pedal.
The crash happened in the Khostinsky District of the Black Sea resort city of Sochi, Russia, on 19th August. The video was released on 25th August.
Footage shows the SUV turning right at a controlled intersection before it suddenly speeds through the pedestrian crossing.
A man can be seen landing on the bonnet of the vehicle before rolling off as the car continues moving forward.
The 56-year-old driver hit a 57-year-old woman who was crossing on the zebra crossing.
The vehicle then struck a parked BelGee, which was pushed into a parked Kia.
The Land Rover reportedly continued until it crashed into a palm tree.
The female pedestrian was hospitalised following the crash.
The driver did not require medical assistance.
Police have opened an administrative case against the driver, which could lead to fines or a licence suspension.
