In much of Europe, and I would assume Russia as well, that's a pretty typical scenario. I suspect the car is set up to handle the situation much like a native driver.

Considering the amount of traffic-related deaths in Russia... They'd better handle it like non-native driver.

Yes, I also noticed it, it seems like there are continuous micro (and not so micro) corrections on the steering wheel, with such behaviour the passenger (besides the driver that has some more chances, being attentive to the road, to not get it) is likely subject to get car-sickness.

That pedestrian is already in the street and they momentarily stutter then pass the pedestrian with very little room.
That and the way the steering seems super sensitive to various snow remainders on the side of the street. It's almost as if it's controlling for its position relative to the snow instead of picking a mostly straight trajectory.
