i70 Colorado must dangerous Interstate

[@michaelmyers3892]

If i-70 going to Colorado scares you then you don't need to drive through there that ain't nothing

[@bokebryant3985]

I think it’s probably called dangerous because of the potential landslides

[@xavia4706]

I drove this once! Yup, ONCE! As it was snowing. Never again

[@andrewYashua7490]

That interstate is especially dangerous and scary at night

[@deanthesavage]

Yo. I've been on that interstate at 73 mph at night and it was the literally the best! 🚗💨

[@johnpatton4936]

@@deanthesavageit’s not bad when it’s dry. But 7 months out of the year it’s covered in snow practically the whole way between grand junction and Denver.

[@deanthesavage]

@@johnpatton4936 Oh yeah and I've never driven in snow

[@watersnortmoment3734]

@deanthesavage Snow’s not that bad, you just have to adjust to the situation. You have to go much slower than you otherwise would, and be very gentle on throttle and steering input. Also, if there’s anywhere that looks like it’s wet but you don’t hear the tires kick up any water, you’re on black ice, don’t suddenly hit the breaks or anything like that’ or you’ll spin.

[@deanthesavage]

@@watersnortmoment3734 Thanks for the advice

[@jayk.2276]

This is a cake walk. Dangerous? Try US Highway 2 out of Kalispell, MT in the winter. No worries, I remember when I first got my drivers license too lol.

[@LittleBudd13]

Yes it's gets crazy on your side of 2.

[@andyv2209]

Nobody goes to Montana

[@johnmcquaide9896]

Yeah right. Go try the stretch of US 550 from Durango to Ouray CO then get back to me.

[@GaryWoolard-ex6gj]

You are sooooo right guy!!! You know at least going over Coal Bank Pass and Molas Pass from Durango to Silverton has guardrails. I was born in Detroit and grew up there and Livonia (suburb west of Detroit) and after my military service I'm living in the Grand Rapids, Michigan area. I've gone skiing in Colorado when I was in the Air Force. So I haven't driven across Red Mountain Pass, yet I seen a lot videos about this area and driving back country mountain dirt 4 x 4 roads. I always wished that I could have lived in Colorado. But now it's gotten so expensive to live there and I can't move there or anywhere else. I seen a KZbin video by a semi-truck driver that goes by his KZbin channel name of "Riding Shotgun" driving across Red Mountain Pass north bound. This was in June, 2017 I believe and after going down from the height of this pass you could see a white mountain peak in the distance. I think it was Uncompahgre Peak of 14,309 feet.

[@RoseanneSeason7]

You speak the absolute truth.

[@RoseanneSeason7]

Ouray is such an amazing town. Looking up from main Street the mountains are almost over the town like a dome.

[@jjlady552]

It is not the most dangerous highway! Lived there my whole life-just gotta be smart. Don’t ride the brakes and keep speed down!

[@dsanchez9703]

Your right, everytime I've ridden in these type of curves and stuff people are going 30 or more over the speed limit, if not it's not even dangerous

[@GaryWoolard-ex6gj]

No it's NOT. If you go off the road, you aren't going 800 feet down and some reports 1,000 feet down to the river gorge below. Also a portion is 85% angle downward. Glenwood canyon is a piece of cake compared to Red Mountain Pass. Look at the following KZbin video short. "White Knuckle! Red Mountain Pass Colorado, don't take your eyes of the road!" #shorts@wheelinoutwest

[@skinnyskinhead9492]

what about going down or up the old donner pass road summit by donner lake. theres guard rails on most of it but some spots doesnt have it and it gets so wet and icy

[@TheFinancialFrank]

I've traveled through there three times, saw Rams crossing the highway the last time. Being next to that net catching the boulders is next level scary

[@RamkysTravels-uh3fw]

Looks like a great road 👍👍 Does not appear dangerous 🤔🤔

[@sentlove]

If only you knew…

[@thatguyisbackagain]

I was on I 70 from Green River to Denver two weeks ago. HORRID road. Threw my vehicle around violently.

[@teamgarcia9325]

Yup is wild up there and all the mountains. I can only imagine in snow ❄️

[@SuperEman500]

Perfect road to take my new Corvette on, right?

[@briansolo]

truly a feat of engineering. Is this around Glenwood Canyon?

[@themetalhead1463]

Guanella Pass but it will take you forever.

[@ExtremelyAverageMan]

@@themetalhead1463 What? Guanella pass is near Georgetown. To answer his question, yes this is the Glenwood Springs corridor

[@ExtremelyAverageMan]

Sure, but not exactly through the Glenwood Springs corridor

[@Offroader451-rm5jz]

It's not snowing, what's the big deal?

[@freedom7265]

Umm…. Where is the scary part in the video? Bumps in the road? Well, that’s pretty much every road with some age to it.

[@videostar07]

It's about how rough the pavement is there, watch the video.

[@Nonameconservative]

Red Mountain pass Monarch Pass Wolfcreek pass. Rabbit Ears Douglas pass All worse than Glenwood Canyon 😊

[@MrVLC1972]

Speed bumps on an interstate. Hmm! Speed control.

[@thefrase7884]

Oh the humanity

[@danlichtenberger6462]

Purpose of this video was?????

[@tyronemoo2917]

Why is it dangerous?

[@megarth1]

Many sleep deprived drivers, too much beautiful scenery, and too many gentle curves at 75 mph. Also, perfectly dry roads in the sun then black ice in the mountain’s shade.

[@eLiV8t]

Wth ?

[@indomitusEvehementis]

I was lucky enough to drive through Aspen on a snowy night. Whole thing looked like Santa’s Village. All those nice houses on the mountain side.

[@themetalhead1463]

Aspen is not near I-70

[@dr.woozie7500]

Meanwhile I-70 in Kansas, flat and boring even at 100+ mph

[@kellypittman7004]

Exactly. Goes to one lane so much.

[@eddiepacheco367]

Yeap

[@freemygrandma8752]

I'll take that over mountains any day. The scenery is beautiful blah blah blah but I'm telling you it's super extra super scary going down

[@newtoncooper4085]

It was torture, then 1/3 of Colorado was just as flat.

[@hectorhextor2741]

I did this drive on my first week out of school not fun lol 😢

[@marcusmorf]

Glenwood canyon, right by No Name. Driven hundreds of times 👍

[@ARandomCardinal]

I70 in Indianapolis is just HORRIBLE. It has potholes everywhere. It's a bad interstate to be driving on if you want to got to the airport...

[@queencharlibee1991]

I love driving it, in the day time in the summer ...

[@gtrpkr2487]

Glenwood Springs Canyon. It’s more about the dangerous drivers than the road. IMO.

[@paulnguyen8910]

I travelled here via Greyhound ® bus to & from Denver, CO in May 1999.

[@JoePuzzlin]

Making want to reconsider driving this stretch to Pittsburgh from Portland. That scenery is just beautiful

[@TokyoHomes]

Very beautiful but I found in USA the road is flat this can be very danger while turning in curve. This is called banking, and it's done to prevent cars from sliding off the road at high speeds. When you're driving in a straight line, all the energy of the vehicle is aligned with the direction of travel. If you were to slam on the brakes, you'd decelerate in a straight line. However, when you're going around a curve, your energy becomes compound. It's not just in a straight line in front of you, but also away from the center of the curve. If you were going around a curve, and the road suddenly turned to ice, you'd continue moving forward, but also outward along the radius of the curve. The banking is done to offset this outward energy and help cars stay on the road - without the banking, taking even a large turn will run the risk of the vehicle sliding left or right, since the amount of friction between the road and the tires is finite, and can be overwhelmed by sufficient speeds.

[@BrjanBuckmaster]

“Must” dangerous interstate? There was nothing in the video to support your claim. Of the ten most dangerous interstates in the U.S. I-70 ranks #8. Perhaps you should put down the camera and focus on driving.

[@MyName-yl2nc]

Lol cute 😂😂 come drive through Minnesota

[@iqbalulhaq8852]

Then you have not driven enough Try CA 120 East from oak dale to Yosemite to mono lake

[@rich1879]

You think that's bad highway right now, you should have tried it in the '60s

[@Dwohman]

That's Glenn Canyon, and I remember when that section of road first opened back in 1992. I have been through there driving semi trucks hundreds of times.

[@LittleBudd13]

Nah... It's nice in this video... Show it when it's fuct.

[@kevinhaggerty3007]

Just wait till there's snow and ice

[@maureenjohnson5151]

Whoa!😮😎

[@noelmyran9963]

Most dangerous highway I have ever been on. I was coming from Breckenridge to Denver

[@themetalhead1463]

Really? It isn’t even dangerous. You must be very risk averse. City block driving is much more dangerous. Try Highway 550, “the million dollar highway” in SW Colorado. It’s like the Alps and is breathtaking. Why are city dwellers so afraid of this highway yet it is much more dangerous to drive in metro Denver? Most fatal accidents don’t occur on highways.

[@eddiepacheco367]

Sure is I was just there like 5 months ago

[@eddiepacheco367]

I was there last year once you pass denver get ready o went all the way to grand junction it was amazing but scary

[@addyken88]

We did that drive last spring- for whatever reason going to grand junction was scarier than heading back to Denver for us

[@eddiepacheco367]

@@addyken88 it is

[@prg66]

That stretch isn’t even close to the most dangerous section of I70 in Colorado, if driving through Glenwood canyon scares you then don’t even attempt the stretch between the Eisenhower tunnel and Denver because the several miles of 6% down grade would definitely freak you out.

[@prank213]

That looks like I-70 south heading towards Denver
