Going way to fast for an iced out road. All of that compacted snow is wet and hard, no traction.

No offense bro, The scene when you trying to get together the Volvo, and the 40bhp, rear engine, RWD Skoda 120 (basically an anti car) is crusing uphill effortlessly killed me :D:D.. This scene was directed by life :))

Nechápu jak jsi to mohl jet se zaplým ESP či jiným systémem. Vždyť se s tím nedá jet :D nesnáším jak mě to tahá za koule při sebemenším smyku. Vždy když vyjíždím na sněhu, tak vypínám.

I've lived 45 years in Norway and know plenty about driving in rugged winter terrain, and the driving in this video is dangerous af through populated areas. Are you Russian or something, because we have all seen how they "drive"... XD

@@nerd_in_norway hi, no i’m not Russian but i too have driven in snow quite a lot (not the clip with the Trabi on snow from my page haha that’s a looong time ago). I’m just saying he doesn’t seem to go any faster than other traffic when passing nor does he pull the handbrake thru small streets with cars parked left and right. Seen other dangerous driving clips, but I personally do not think this is one. Thanks

DJ Mink You're a fucking mug. Yes he drove a bit crazy but to say he should kill himself for turning off an electronic assist and seeing how his car reacts when it's the safest time to do so (lowest speeds, car doesn't snap oversteer etc etc) Only thing was he was doing it in places where he didn't have that long visibility, so should make sure its well clear first

You need to practice a lot. I have the exact same car and it can be very intuitive and easy to behave in this condition. Don’t get me wrong I don’t want to judge you or tell you something to make you upset. Just go to a extreme driving school and learn how to control a car in such condition. Now you are chaotic and aggressive in driving. Few hours on the track and you will smoothen up these moves. There is potential in you, just learn from a pro :) the t5 awd is a great car for handling :)

@nerd_in_norway 3 жыл бұрын

Yikes, that is WAY TOO aggressive driving. Especially the speed you passed that plow truck through a populated area, you would have zero chance to stop if a kid ran into the road behind the truck. Later there was even a sign warning of kids and people and you just raced on. Number one rule in driving: drive according to the conditions around you. Even if it was dry and summer this type of speeds through populated areas would be reckless and dangerous. But maybe they don't have road safety and traffic laws where you live? 🤷🏼‍♂️

@gavinvalentino6002 10 ай бұрын

In Norway, is there a constant threat of children running out across the road right behind a snowplow? Perhaps the children should be admonished, not the driver.
