First Car Crash in Two Decades: Ukrainian TV Host Anatoliy Anatolich Involved in Kyiv Collision

Anatoliy Anatolich in Car Accident on Kyiv's Bohatyrska Street

According to РБК-Україна — Lite: Ukrainian television personality Anatoliy Anatolich was involved in a traffic collision on Bohatyrska Street in Kyiv. He struck a Skoda that was stopped in the middle of the road without its hazard lights on. Fortunately, no one was injured in the incident, though the left side of Anatolich's retro BMW convertible sustained damage.

Anatolich was driving a 2004 BMW with approximately 283,000 kilometers on the odometer. The damage includes scratches and dents on the front fender and left-side bumper. Red paint residue from the other vehicle was left on the car, which Anatolich clarified was not blood:

Host's Comments and Vehicle Collection

The host noted that in 20 years of driving, this marks the first time he has hit another vehicle. “It was a minor accident. But the main thing is that everyone is alive and well, no one was hurt. And the damage to the car isn’t that serious,” he commented on the incident.

In addition to the BMW, Anatolich also owns other vehicles, including:

• a Volkswagen ID.6 electric car
• a Mercedes-Benz G-Class

He purchased the retro convertible for around $27,000 USD.

This incident highlights the importance of road safety, even for experienced drivers. While Anatoliy Anatolich escaped unharmed and caused no serious damage, the situation could have been far worse. Drivers should always stay alert to road conditions, especially in busy urban traffic.
