The Mountain Rules | I-70 Mountain Corridor Overview

[@shericall3452]

Practical, timely, and universal mountain pass travel information! Well done CMCA and CO DOT!

[@XandriaJax]

I moved here during the summer from Houston, Texas and have traveled I-70 and this was more informative than expected and I'm ready for winter!!! Thank you.♡

[@jakebroz9116]

I drove I-70 for the first time from Denver to Breckenridge a few days ago and even though the roads were luckily cleared and open those steep grades and sharp curves got REAL, especially after the Eisenhower/Johnson tunnel, but wow what an experience. I have the utmost respect for semi truck drivers that carry over routes such as that.

[@Brose97366]

That part I drove it golden to boulder at night and almost shit myself

[@puffkendrick6850]

This information is very helpful for us drivers ,Thanks for your time putting this together.

[@Biig__TUNA]

Just got my CDL. Thank you for this information!!

[@dennisa10cio]

Nice job!

[@meanwhile4308]

Great video!!

[@carlosjoseramosgomez9491]

Excelent video!!! 👍👍👍👍👍

[@Solitaryman70]

You can talk and watch videos all you want BUT, there’s nothing like hands on EXPERIENCE. NUFF-SAID..😇

[@IssorNerraw]

Highway 6 was one of the most memorable experience the terrain was a sight to see

[@Velcartransport]

I just got my class A 3 weeks ago with no restrictions and I can't believe I'm starting my career out of Aurora Colorado

[@gregorylopez6024]

Serious subject. Good for the State of Colorado. This was very informative. I believe mountain driving knowledge should be its own separate test when trying to obtain a CDL license. Most states’ general knowledge tests briefly cover some of this material, but it’s not enough. The problem is I’m seeing a lot of new truck drivers these days with poor training and poor knowledge on safety standards.

[@g41thomas]

Great video for trip planning

[@derekzaleski3143]

This is my playground 😂

[@bizoune2006]

W0W !!

[@RT-gq3bh]

In Arizona, after numerous multiple fatality accidents, we provide very obvious warning at the top of a hill (like I70) when traffic is stopped or restricted anywhere on the downgrade. I can’t find any where this was done in the terrible accident of 2 years ago.

[@101southsideboy]

i was always taught to go down a grade in one or two gears lower than the gear I went up in

[@DominicMazoch]

Is I80 across WY a safer route?

[@dougmitchell5435]

Different. Not likely better. Windy as hell, and the gusts through the gaps in the surrounding mountains cn be really violent.

[@treytheaviator4440]

Not to mention constant I-80 road closures through Wyoming during winter storms which are a common consistent occurrence during that time.

[@Horarik]

What about US-40?

[@IXSuperRadGamerXI]

No it is not safer. Sometimes can be even worse with the wind gusts and snow and ice building up in your wells and onto brakes it can turn into a nightmare. People try to fly around there and spin out all the time when trying to pass a semi in the right lane they might wind up not seeing a plow truck moving very slowly in the left. I've seen time after time people trying to do that and wiping out. However, if you need escape route to be more available then for that reason I'd say maybe it is a better bet.

[@AC-qk5lk]

Do chains laws also apply to light load cargo vans under the GVWR of I think 16,000lbs.?

[@mrmccreight1]

I believe the chain law is required by ALL vehicles, cars and trucks alike.

[@wanderingfido]

And be sure to plead guilty to all charges. Or you could get sentenced for 110 years.

[@littleburr25]

Has anymore video's been released?

[@famousfathead8020]

Production starts soon. Likely first quarter of 2022.

[@mrmccreight1]

Unfortunately, those who need to watch this regularly, the majority of drivers who also swear by GPS units, won't.

[@truckerforever]

How about not going to Colorado? 👎👎👎🤔🤔🤔

[@davids4063]

Well how about don't send inexperienced drivers to CO. I would not send a driver to CO without me riding down few mountains with him or her at the wheel first.

[@siyonqoba4810]

I'm not driving through Colorado in a semi ever

[@jimholloman4457]

This video would be better without the loud background music -- that doesn't want to stay in the background.

[@rosembentley9405]

Dígame usted como un truck drivers que no entienda, ni escriba ni hablé Inglés, pueda entender la peligrosidad de manejar en esa área.

[@benjaminacosta2582]

si es una pregunta,es muy buena! estoy de acuerdo con usted! es NECESARIO que cada "truck driver" sepa al menos inglés basico! asi se evitarian muchos accidentes!

[@futureshock7425]

Brakes don’t last forever

[@garychaney7120]

No matter how long you been driving I70 you never get use to I avoid Colorado as much as I can man!!!!

[@Aikynbreusov]

We need this video to be Punjabi language so all the illiterate Indian drivers can know what to do and how to drive safely on our American roads

[@rayray4192]

Good thing you have mirrors mounted on your hood. How did anyone ever operate a tractor trailer without mirrors.
