This footage shows an Audi driver using the slip road for a service station to speed down a motorway and hitting a people carrier that tried to use the turn off.

The shocking crash that followed caused both vehicles to smash into stationary lorries, apparently waiting in line to refuel.

The incident took place on the Simferopol motorway near Podolsk, in Russia's Moscow Oblast, on Monday, 28th April.

The footage, filmed on the dash cam of another car on the road, shows the blue Audi shooting past as it undertakes other motorists on the road by illegally using the slip road.

But as ther Audi approachwes the turn off it carries on going, colliding with a people carrier that can be seen indicating before turning into the rest stop.

It cuts off the speeding Audi, causing the blue vehicle to hit it, with both cars careering off the road and into the forecourt, where they hit parked lorries.

The front of the Audi can be seen completely destroyed after it smashed into the back of one of the HGVs.

It was unclear at the time of writing if there were any casualties in the crash.
