Snow & Chaos: Bowness on Windermere | Windermere🤣🤣

Only walk with with the direction of traffic when walking up hills or on the outside of bends, where you are more visible everyone else on the roads, then switch back after, at the top of hills and at a safe distance away from the corner or wherever gives you the best view of all directions traffic could be coming from.

Most Local Authorities don't grit the roads because it's too expensive, no drivers who are qualified to drive snowploughs, so 2 inches of snow and the country grinds to a halt. Sweden, Denmark and Norway etc cope pretty well with 4ft of snow.

[@JelMain]

No money for salt, increasing the premiums helps Sunak's mates.

[@LupaDomina]

​@@JelMainhere in Sheffield they have a network of Farmers who come out and plough the roads in the elevated areas close to the moors. It's a great little side earner and they clear all the side roads too once the main are up and running again. To be honest they are better than the main teams who just drive gritter trucks which is about as much use as a pipe cleaner to climb a rock face in heavy snow.

[@sholehan]

How much budget do you want your local authority to spend on something that happens for a handful of days per year, max? Of course they are well prepared in Nordic and Alpine areas. It's half the year.

[@graemewalker1267]

Never use winter tyres, just let the engine do the work, had no probs in Mondeo automatic, jag or my current Audi. Just slow and steady, stay off the brakes and accelerate very lightly just above stall point, get just about everywhere, even a 1 in 6 just down the road.

Quite educational for people who don't drive or have yet to drive. Note that 4wd is no good unless you've got clever diffs, diff locks, or...better still, the correct tyres. I hope that most of those people were going home from work, but i fear some of them were just going to the bloody shops to buy tat. Another thing i've noticed is that when it gets this slippery anti-lock brakes don't stop you crashing. They just allow you to crash in a straight line rather than spinning.

[@Travel_Breeze]

Thank you for watching 👍

[@richardhaywood4123]

Yes abs is not much use when it snows neither is traction control.

[@markwright3161]

It's all in the tyres. It doesn't matter how fancy a diff or AWD/4WD system you have if the tyres are a summer compound that has went solid and plastic-like from the cold and have nothing in their design for using what you're driving through against itself. Snow tyres have 'sipes' designed to collect snow then using the snow-on-snow physics for better traction where summer tyres are just solid smooth rubber for maximising grip on warmer unbroken tarmac or concrete. And of course, even if your fancy system gets you moving, you're still dependent on only the 4 tyres to stop and steer, so all that your hightech drivetrain will do is propel you into whatever hedge, ditch, wall or crowd of people ( 1:45) is in front of you. ABS and TC systems assume your tyres have traction available, so with the wrong tyres, those systems are trying to regain grip that isn't there. At the same time, they often just don't work when you need slip, be it allow some wheelslip when trying to maintain momentum or to allow snow to build up in front of the tyres to help slow down.

Love your comment. Thank you for watching 👍

We have much more snow in the north east? We're not daft enough to go out in it ? If we do we have snow tyres on

[@weemark67]

Videos found on KZbin, showing that a front wheel drive car, with winter tyres will out perform a 4x4 with summer/normal tyres. But majority of people have no clue, about the state of their tyres. Just like people in dark coloured vehicles don’t like to put their lights on, in poor visibility conditions. Look next time your out and about,it’s true.

🤣🤣🤣

Just use winter / all season tyres. On most vehicles there's no excuse for not running all season tyres which would be more than adequate in those conditions.

My car is still near stephenson ground near scissors cross roads. Anyone any clue what the roads are like up there now?

[@Travel_Breeze]

Hi Mark, All the roads are pretty clear here (Windermere) now, even the side roads should be clear as the sun is out. Hope this helps ❤

[@superseacrow9463]

Love this. Typical Bris helping each other. Get all season tryes guys. Absolute heroes

[@Travel_Breeze]

Yes the British will always help out, they were also having a lot of fun xx

[@Travel_Breeze]

@@DanielRbk1 I do help but there were already a lot of people helping xx

[@russell5791]

Fashionable wide wheels with ultimate grip in the dry don't help either in snow

[@MC-id3fq]

Yup I had no trouble, was on all seasons 👍

[@DanielRbk1]

Hat it! Why pusking cars????

[@npr1300A8]

Can you imagine a winter like 1962-63 happening again?? Apart from the country grinding to a complete halt, I'd love to hear what the climate zealots would have to say!

I now live in North Devon, and I miss Cumbria greatly. I'm watching a video I took with my late wife and I walking from Glebe Road (where we'd parked our motorcycle) to the Albert for lunch. This was back in May 2015. Happy days.

[@npr1300A8]

​@@Travel_BreezeI notice that the large tree at the roundabout of Crag Brow/Rayrigg Rd has gone.

[@Travel_Breeze]

@@npr1300A8 seen a few trees down xx

[@markwright3161]

Back then they didn't have wide lowprofile tyres on everything, or people driving around in bloated faux-by-fours that aren't any more capable in any way than the hatchbacks they think their 'upgrading' from, so the country would have still kept moving better than today. Drivers also needed to actually know stuff about cars then too, so they would understand when their car couldn't get somewhere before trying.

[@willybendit]

any ev.s about how well do they perform in the snow & ice just get hot and burst into flames or just flatten the battery ICE everytime fo me Stick the EV.s where the sun dont shine

[@Anrirua]

Scotland?

[@Travel_Breeze]

Bowness on Windermere, Lake District

[@Anrirua]

​​@@Travel_BreezeSo stick em there then? 😂 I meant where the sun don't shine 😮😅 My father worked there years ago, on pipelines. Stayed with Cowperthwaites. So we grew up listening to stories about the Lake District. And paintings of Windermere. Hi from the Midlands in Ireland. No snow here at all yet. But cold enough. -5c last night but at least its stopped raining and the bloody grass and weeds have stopped growing.

[@jamesj97370]

People discovering that winter/all season tyres make the difference, not whether your car is a 4x4 😂

[@Travel_Breeze]

👍

[@WetLettuce-kc2qm]

The brainwashed sheep fall for the 4x4 marketing. My fwd car cost me £4K. Bridgestone Blizzaks on now and I drive through snow like it's not even there.

[@Travel_Breeze]

Thank you for watching 👍

[@col4574]

Once upon a time the local snowplough cleared the roads and a tough guy with a green barrow full of road salt did the pavements.

[@Travel_Breeze]

Few people out with snow shovels, everyone trying to help xx
