Driving to Moscow?
What's it like to drive to Moscow nowadays? I'm thinking about driving from
Finland via Saint Petersburg, by a car with Finnish licence plates.
Is it dangerous (assuming no driving by night)? How much should I expect to
pay in bribes? Do the Russian traffic police only ask for a little
contribution "like a road toll" or do they really shake you down, go through
your luggage, etc.? Any other advice?
