Russian Meteor -- Wow

Amazing photos and videos of the meteor that split the sky over Chelyabinsk, Russia yesterday.

But here's a question: why do so many Russians drive around with videocameras on the dashboards of their cars?

UPDATE: It seems that Russians all have dashboard cameras because accidents are common and the traffic court system is so corrupt that the only way to avoid false liability claims is to have videotape of any accidents. Strange world in which we end up with all this awesome video of a meteor impact because of traffic court corruption.
