Remember on snow or ice you should get your wheels spinning as fast as possible and if you start to slide turn your wheels sharply and hold them there while you lock up your brakes.

9:19 good driving from the bus. Takes a lot to get a bus back moving on a snowy and icy hill!

the guys driving the buses round there need a medal. o also take my hat off to the 1 guy that helped

That Bike was 100% Thug life.

Was impressed by the guy who stopped to tow another. Need more actions like that in the world.

That guy on the bike was thinking "haha fuck you guys".

Excellent driving considering the conditions! And relatively no carnage? Not even any swearing or pissed off drivers... Great video!

That crosser was amazing, blasted straight up. :)

You know that guy has been driving 4x4s for years and was just waiting for this to happen 😂 Hats off to you for helping 🥇

LOL @ the motorcycle just poppin right on through! Priceless!

Here in Finland local farmers earn some extra from council by keeping roads and streets clean during winter with their tractors. When snow starts coming tractors are out almost instantly. You should do that in U.K. too.

did I just watch a bus drift up a hill with 1mph?! my life is complete lol

I could watch this video on a loop to put me to sleep. No idea why, must be the hum of the engines is soothing...

UK drivers seem very polite, careful and tame compared to drivers in the US. Here, you see cars spinning around, smashing into each other, flipping over, exploding, running over pedestrians, crashing into houses, careening over cliffs Add snow and ice to the mix, and it gets even worse!!

I’m quite impressed with how the bus driver actually managed to drive such a big bus down a very slippery snowy hill.

Was really hoping that someone flooring it up the hill would yell "POWERRRRR!"

great bus driving skills.

I got to admit, you have some good drivers over there. I'm over halfway through the video and haven't seen one accident yet.

Cars in winter + no winter tyres=fun!

For a place that rarely sees snow, I'm impressed there wasn't a single fender-bender in the entire video! Love the guy in the Isuzu Trooper @ 13:09 who hauls the car up the hill like a boss.

I think the perception of 'winter' tyres is they are only for when it snows, which isn't the case. Winter tyres provide better grip when it's wet or icey as well. In Switzerland and some areas of Germany where it's the law to switch tyres in the winter they have far fewer winter related accidents and rear wheel drive cars like Audi's and BMW's don't struggle so much on hills. I've been switching to winter tyres every winter for over 20 years in the UK and feel i'm safer on the road as a result.

Haha legend on that motorcross bike and the quad

7:53 Prince Philip in his Range Rover saying "Fuck you, peasants!" (Now I just lost my DofE award now. LOL)

I'm amazed that there appeared to be no accidents, the guy with the 4 wheel drive that towed the car up the hill could have spent all night doing that, good man for sure. All in all it was refreshing to see how UK drivers behaved and got through this difficult hill of ice and snow, in the US, it would have been a whole different story *LOL*.

Also Guy in the 4wd at the end what a legend for towing that Vectra up the Hill , Top man

Soon as the first muppet stops and slows everything down then u lose the tarmac line your ducked XD

i got respect for the guy on the bike. the slushy ice beads are the hardest thing to ride on. i takes a lot out of you. about the same energy it would take to ski or snowboard i imagine. your constantly trying to catch your balance with every little slip. packed powder is fun to ride on though. or even just powder

hi hi ....i remember the number one you know it....snow ...camera....big fun for you from the window thanks for sharing Ian HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND Pat

Amazing display of patient, sensible, civilized behavior on everyone's part in difficult circumstances. Yes, the plows should have been out, etc., but they weren't, and these people shine for their courtesy and helpfulness to others. Quite a demo of the kind of spirit that have got the Brits through so much. What a pleasure to see good people doing good things for a change. Russian drivers, take a look! This is how it's done.

Thanks Pat Have a good week.

The best car on snow was the old Skoda Estelle I had in the early 90s. Rear engine/rear drive plus it was Czech, and made for Czech winters, which are far worse than ours. Many a time I remember sailing past my neighbours with their modern cars slipping and sliding everywhere. It always started as well. Unlike some of my neighbours' cars.

These vids are the best

Excellent video x

haha fun watch Ian thanks for posting.

It always annoys me when people who aren't from the UK are like "duh, get winter tires" Yeah, no. It snows for like a day here (except scotland) and chances are that snow won't hang around long enough for it to become an issue. And tires are expensive! I have £3.36 in my current account. I am not about to go out and buy 4 brand new snow tires for a day that might not come.

I was so happy to see a fellow biker

wow so much snow

watching this at home and my city has possibly 1-2 inches of snow coming in the next month. How well does a VW Golf handle in these conditions with a manual? My car is new so I haven't had a chance to test it in really nasty weather yet and a lot of Brits seem to love driving the Golf.

10.000£ pound cars but 80£ for winter tires? No way....

No problem driving down that hill in snow...until you have to stop.

That bus going up was impressive.

i love all the rang-rover drivers driving up the hill like its nothing lolol

Nice to see the 4x4 tow that other car up the hill :)

and on that night, the number 43 bus, made a fool of all!

No wonder, they're crashing: They're driving on the wrong side!

Hi, great video, just shows that people here in the UK still haven't caught on that they should get "Winter Tyres" ( have the Snowflake & Mountain symbol on the side of the tyre ) between the end of October and early April, these are for any weather conditions snow,slush,rain,ice,dry etc when the temps go below +7oC. For a perfect display of what Winter Tyres can do check out "Winter Vs Summer Tyres - On a ski slope" here on KZfaq , great vid once again , cheers.

Thats kinda cute, how most of them are using summer tires. Kinda funny :D

Mr bus driver & motorcyclist shows how its done the quick way :p

That bike flexing on everyone

6:39 'oh its a bmw! I musst filming THE back wheels ' :D

That's a nice hill and vantage point to see all the fun and chaos. I think I'm going to set up shop with a small Caterpillar and charge forty quid a pull each car up that hill.

lol the dirt bike like “see ya fuckers”

I saw buses, atvs, bikes, lol. It was pretty diverse set of vehicles.

enjoyed this ,,very relaxing,,loved the bus going sideways lol

Haha the range rover cruised up xD

Probably 20 sets of snow tires in the whole country !

Hi, great videos I've watched them all but can't help watching them again and again (sad git I am.. lol). The camera is excellent both in clarity and low light conditions, what make/model is it please?

WOW much snow there.. Are having winter tires on the cars??

nobody had the idea to reduce air pressure for better grip

Quality bit of drifting by the bus

Really rather relaxing :-)

What i've learned from this is get a quad or a dirty bike lol loved the bus driver keeping his foot in with the damn car's getting in his way.

that snow is so fresh, that it turns into slush and not ice. thats why cars can keep going while slipping their wheels. the more they push the gas, the more they find clear tarmac beneath and can keep going. i guess it was a much different story the next day when the road got covered with a sheet of ice. probably impossible without chains

Very true, 2nd or 3rd and keep the revs around 1500rpm, also diesel front wheel drive and a set of proper Winter Tyres and they'd have no problems at all , I drive a Vauxhal Astra 1.7dti and use Vredstein Snowtrac3 tyres beween October - April...no problems at all, other good makes are "Continetal TS800" and Nokian winter tyres , Dunlop do a decent set also.

An Excellent Video. ♡ T.E.N.

как легко прёт автобус!! а также респект чувакам на дёртовом байке и квадрике! :)

In the old days the council had grit and salt bins on hills so motorist could spread some under the car wheels. My father always carried a shovel in the boot just for that. A bin on that road would be very handy.

You filmed this on my B-Day

Glad there wasn't any accidents. Where I come from snow is normal and most people have snow tires, United Kingdom as far as I know doesn't get much snow

06:54 is hilarious :-)

I am wondering what kind of winter tyres you do have there? Do you even have there "real" winter tyres, like studded (Nokian) one?

Good on the 4x4 driver stopping and giving a tow up the hill.

I like that old Land Rover Defender at 1:30 if that's what it is. Don't see them much here in the states,but when I do I'm like "wow! I want one!"

Give us more of these videos please :) they're very enjoyable to watch **hides gloating** either way it's fun to see how certain people handle the situation

These people are actually handling this pretty well.

On the hill near us, we throw out the embers from our open fire...and then sand on top..works a treat.

Niedliches Örtchen!

The bike owned the cars! Lol

I've got 2 words for driving during a British winter..... SNOW SOCKS!!! I thought they were a gimmick until my mum got a set for her car, they are so simple to use and they actually work! My mum (in her mid 50's and no mechanical knowledge) can fit them in a couple of minutes and then off she goes with her big fluffy reindeer antlers and big rudolph nose on her car!!! It's quite a sight, makes me laugh every time!

Keep a constant speed and your fine. I figured out how to unstuck a transit in snow. Traction control off, floor it in first then to second!

As a New Yorker who lives in the UK, Brits have no idea how to drive in the snow.

4x4 saves the day...i would never own a 2WD vehicle.

Because fuck winter tyres! :-D

what road in derbyshire is this and what village?

Gosh, If I was the owner of that Celica I'd be fearing for my car's life. That taxi at the end made me cringe.

To be fair, that bus normally has a good few passengers on it. There was one on the top deck at the front :-)

LOL C2 at 2:40... winter tyres indeed XD

The reason people don't use winter tyres here is because by the time you need them, the snow will have melted. Snow usually falls in the night, then it melts by midday.

love to play skyrim beside a window like that

Studded tyres are illegal for road use in the UK. Non studded winter tyres are legal and easy to find here. We can get 3 inches of snow in a couple of hours (Much more on higher ground) but then it can melt away within a day! Britain has strange weather in winter!

It says something about a driver when absolutely no attempt has been made to clear snow off a back window. Also the best way up is 3rd gear, low revs and traction, not 1st and wheelspin.

Bloody Hell!!!!!!! Go out there and help them - shovel snow and push that bus, etc. Or I will have to shove one up your RING PIECE, yea.... LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Just kidding lol.... Great Video mate.

As I bus driver , in that situation I’d have pulled over safely and stopped the bus. No point going any further and risk having an accident.

The dude at 8:28 is lit afff

To this day that taxi is still spinning up that hill

Two days later and all the snow has gone! Very few people put on 'winter tyres' over here Andy.

were they all on summer tires ?

Welcome to Canada. We always have that here.

Them enviro 400 are quite strong

Good old whitt hill, never fails. Haha
