Warning! The last two pictures do show some traces of blood. The pictures were still “ok for the newpaper ” here but they might offend someone.

There was a !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! on Saturday in a small Finnish city. After the midnight the party was over and a group of four people was traveling home with an early 70's Chrysler Newport. T hey didn’t reach far away before the passengers managed to have an argument. The driver had stopped the car in a place where the shoulder was quite narrow and the car was left partially on the right side lane.

The highway had two lanes per direction and a center barrier in the middle. This type of highway isn’t very common in F inland but in Sweden they are common.

Unlike a surprisingly big amount of Finnish highways , this part didn’t have any high-mast lighting. It’s not pitch black here in July nights but it’s still pretty dark.

The driver stayed in the car but three passenger were trying to solve their argument on the right side lanes . An approaching Russian truck driver didn’t notice the arguing idiots on the road in time. Maybe there was some evasive action but in the end he did hit the arguing idiots. Two of them were killed at the scene but the third one survived with a leg in ju ry . The truck also hit the parked Chrysler but the both drivers remained physically unhurt.

It’s not yet known if the car had any lights on or what the arguing idiots were actually doing when the accident happened. Maybe there was only two arguing idiots? Maybe the driver had a part in the escalation of the argument too? Stopping on this kind of highway is prohibited but the arguing passengers might have left no other choice for the driver.

The news mentioned that the drivers were sober but I ’m pretty sure that the arguing idiots weren’t. There is a lot of people in this country that should stay far away from alcohol.

Stopping on the shoulder of a highway is dangerous enough, stopping in a travel lane to avoid driving on some gravel seems insane. And then s tanding in an unlit travel lane...

Looks like there was enough room to get the entire car off the road

There seems to be room but our ditches can be deceptively deep especially in the darkness . A nd parking a car safely can be challenging if there’s a heated argument going on inside the car.

I’ll take possibly having to call AAA for a tow over possibly getting nailed at highways speed any day of the week.

Any highway, anywhere parking like that is going to lead to some things not ending up well.

Try to have fun there. If you are still there on August 2th in the evening and the weather is good, there’s going to be a quite large car gathering in the Helsinki center .

I guess the injured person’s car was rear ended heavily?

Maybe in the next time. At least it’s now a very good car spotting season.
