It’s a horrifying video that’s quickly going viral. A female motorist in Russia gets out of her car after spinning on black ice, only to be hit by another car, and flung 50 feet down the road.

This is the shocking moment a woman who got out of her car after spinning out of control on an icy road was sent flying 50 feet through the air by a passing motorist.

Alevtina Kapustina, 34, had been driving to see friends in the village of Bereznyaki near her home in the city of Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk in eastern Russia’s Sakhalin Oblast.

She hit a patch of black ice that sent her Toyota Ipsum spinning 180 degrees as she cried out in horror before coming to a rest.

With her in-car camera still running, she climbs out to see if there is any damage to the side of her motor and is sent flying through the air moments later after being hit by a passing Toyota Novah

The woman, Mrs Kapustina, was taken to a hospital nearby where she was treated for concussion.

This, ladies and gentlemen, is why it’s not a good idea to get out of your car on an icy road. But thankfully, she didn’t pay for that mistake with her life, and is expected to make a full recovery.
