No, phones are not falling from the sky! This is a Motorola Razr2 cell phone advertisement in Russia. Supposedly, the Mercedes Benz in the photo was involved in an accident while the driver was talking on their cell phone, an illegal act in Russia. The campaign is meant to draw attention to the dangers of distracted driving. Hopefully no one was seriously injured. The "RAZR2 Sharper Than Ever" campaign would be in bad taste if that were the case.
