Tengrinews.kz – A truck carrying yogurt overturned in the Mangystau region, after which the driver handed out the remaining undamaged products to local residents, according to Lada.kz.
A video from the scene went viral on December 14. It shows an overturned truck at the 64th railway siding near the village of Borankul. Witnesses say the accident happened because of severe icy conditions on the road. After the crash, the driver reportedly asked locals for help and began giving away the yogurt that survived the accident for free.
The Mangystau regional police confirmed the accident. According to officials, the crash occurred on December 7 at around 2:20 p.m. on the Beineu–Borankul highway.

The driver was fined 78,640 tenge for violating traffic rules.
Why the yogurt was given away
