Unfortunately, this happens all too often in St. Petersburg when the government sends crews to clear the ice and snow off of rooftops.

The windshield of our van was broken this way (though the glass didn’t cave in), and the government workers made no effort to avoid the problem or pay for breaking the glass.

Ahh, life in Russia . . . .

    That’s a scary title for a post! Sorry about your car, but glad no one was hurt. I fear for my life when I have to walk near those clean-up crews. It’s either be hit by ice or walk in the middle of traffic. Sigh.
