In the south-east of Estonia, there’s 800m of road where you can drive through Russia without a visa. We drove it. BONUS PARK BENCH: We Got Pulled Over By The Estonian Military: https://youtu.be/KCR2kHrr4oA

If you did this today you'd turn up the next day in Kharkiv told to shot civilians or the blocker battalions will shoot you.
Well this video has… aged.
Pro-tip: Whilst driving towards a camera, pointing directly at you, do not act like the typical white person, and point at it.
Clearly planned ahead, the camera, if it was one, would have picked you out like someone wearing an orange raincoat.
2:26 these words didn’t age well
GOOD THING YOU DID IT 6 YEARS AGO
If anyone’s wondering if (i) the events of 2022 have changed or closed this route (ii) what happens if you drive through in a UK-plated vehicle and (iii) what happens if you stop straight afterwards for selfies with your dog in front of the scary sign.
The answer to all three is absolutely naff all.
bureaucracy is stupid. nobody actually owns that land or any land
I cycled through there one week ago, still possible and a cool place! Felt a bit sketchy though but was no problem
Wanna impress fans?!!? Do this one again today! Intensity level set to maximum!!!

Blasting The village from the car speakers with open windows while going through Russian border is something I would totally do.
This video would be so badass if it was posted this year.
things that you wouldn't dare do in 2022:
It doesn't help that you look uncool.
I wonder bribing the Russian border guards will get you in…
The Saatse Boot

There is a busline in Helsinki that starts in Helsinki goes trough Vantaa (the neighbouring town) and comes back to Helsinki. It used to be that there was different tickets for Helsinki and one that allowed you to travel both in Helsinki and in the neighbouring towns. So if you had your inside Helsinki ticket and went on that bus where the line started you could not get out till the final stop. I used to use that line often and every time it felt like going through some occupied area you can't get into.
What if vehicles break down ?
