I was about to do the pass when a motorist flagged me down to tell me a coach was reversing all the way back after attempting it so we stopped for a pint at the Woolpack and then set off. Fantastic pub! If it wasn’t for the crazy coach driver we never would have found this great pub! We watched the coach come past whilst enjoying a pint! The pass is not a problem for light vehicles!
Looks like the bus says Pride of the Clyde on it. Most likely Scottish, and definitely driven by an utter madman! If it's a manual then I guess the clutch met its maker too.
Totally foolish considering it looked to be full of passengers too but have to respect his balls of steel at the same time, hilarious to watch wish i could have seen the entire drive up and down
Hahaha brilliant, but very silly. I recently took a 3.5 tonne Fiat ducato over this pass but only because I see the merc sprinter mountain goats mini buses doing it lol, anything bigger than a big van and your asking for trouble.
Does anyone know what happened after this? I'd love to know. Love the way the coach driver got all lairy 2:19 after the guy said it was tricky for a car let alone a coach.
He won't have got to the top I can tell you that , even if this road was flat he wouldn't get round the top bends , he will have turned it after the roman remains before the nasty part.
Passengers are either drunk rugby players shouting. " tKe hRdnott pass you pussy". Or the passanger are saying. " you cNt get this up hardknott" driver " hold my beer".
Must of been a foreigner who can’t read English signs who is going off his phone sat nav thinking this way is a way to get back however his phone does not know the vehicle is rather large
I have just recently drove from Coniston over the Hardknott pass in August and it was a nightmare in a car, typical Scottish Coach Driver with no brains there is no way he should of took that route as the closer you get to Coniston the lane gets narrower, just plain stupid and dangerous
its written unsuitable for all vehicles in winter conditions 30% inclination etc pre entrance and the road is fucking open with black ice all over during winter.... why not prevent accident rather than reach 4 help after the accident(hope the network is available) this place is awesome for summer but not winter. dumb people everywhere lol.

Bloody idiot. A disgrace to professional drivers 😮😮
He’s got balls considering most people can’t ride a motorcycle on that road without falling off.
what the hell...did he drive all the way through the pass with that coach? That's insane...that pass is a bloody nightmare.
I can smell the clutch burn from here
Don't think the passengers were going to need ExLax after that!
I wish I could have been there to see his face at the first double hairpin.
He's got no I'd what's coming up when he starts getting to the top my god love to watch lol 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

bloody hell.....i went over on friday in a renault trafic and it was interesting :-) going to go back and do it on my motorbike.
There are enough warning signs saying unsuitable for HGV,s and coaches.
it's called suicide
How on earth did he manage to get that far there are width restrictions at the bottom ?
I wondered about that too
Get a Greek coach driver in there. Would’ve cleared it all at 40mph without stopping 😅🤯
im just back from going up that in a 1.2 corsa and fuck me hes no chance, love that road
Glad I wasn't on that coach! I'd have wanted to get off!
I could see something was bound to develop here - something perhaps similar to the closing scenes of 'The Italian Job'.
Totally foolish considering it looked to be full of passengers too but have to respect his balls of steel at the same time, hilarious to watch wish i could have seen the entire drive up and down
Didn't he watch the videos before he attempted it?
there is no way he would get around the two hairpins further up... I have seen vans struggle to get around them
i was thinking that too lol
Yeah what happened next
I've seen cars lighting up the wheels.. Though I think it may be accidentally on purpose 😜
Well I drove it today and he wasn't there so I guess he made it
This is the last place I would try to drive a coach.
Hahaha brilliant, but very silly. I recently took a 3.5 tonne Fiat ducato over this pass but only because I see the merc sprinter mountain goats mini buses doing it lol, anything bigger than a big van and your asking for trouble.
Did they get a chinook to airlift it off the hill?
Lads used to rally this back in the 90s. Horrendous road especially in winter.
best coach ride ever tho :D
XD
i felt sick watching this. Hope everyone got home safe
There is a well recognised technique for driving larger vehicles on Hardnott PassRead the damned warning signs and heed them!!!
OK 9 years ago, but no professional driver should be trying this full stop
Part 2, cmon. 🙈🤣
It has to be said, if he made it through then he deserves a fucking raise
If that's the best Glasgow can offer, I'd hate to see the worst.
And I thought going over in my Peugeot Expert van was hard :P
Its the self preservation society :-)
If it was they would have got off and walked !
How many can say they've driven a coach with passengers up there? Obviously a Polish driver!
haha - exactly what i said
Insane! Must have taken a wrong turning.
Why do some drivers feel the need to slip the clutch? SMH
The company does not exist anymore.
Does anyone know what happened after this? I'd love to know. Love the way the coach driver got all lairy 2:19 after the guy said it was tricky for a car let alone a coach.
was all killed the bus turn over
He won't have got to the top I can tell you that , even if this road was flat he wouldn't get round the top bends , he will have turned it after the roman remains before the nasty part.
Yeah but HOW do to turn a vehicle that big up there?
Yes it's hard enough in a car it's madness in a bus
@@me-ju3fv there's a turning area before it gets really bad, there's room but it will be a struggle.
Passengers are either drunk rugby players shouting. " tKe hRdnott pass you pussy".
Or the passanger are saying. " you cNt get this up hardknott" driver " hold my beer".
Hang on lads..I got an idea!
went up there for the second time todAY Exellente road
Must have done it for a bet. Bugger that coming towards you.
Coach will need a new clutch 🤓
Putting peoples lives at risk. Pillock!
Must of been a foreigner who can’t read English signs who is going off his phone sat nav thinking this way is a way to get back however his phone does not know the vehicle is rather large
Yes, a Jock !
@@leeenglandland2978 maybe a Pole Jock E

he was THE PRiDE OF THE CLYDE though - im sure his boss was real happy - must have been Polish
Utter madness
absolute fool this road is barely suitable for a saloon car!!
its written unsuitable for all vehicles in winter conditions 30% inclination etc pre entrance and the road is fucking open with black ice all over during winter.... why not prevent accident rather than reach 4 help after the accident(hope the network is available) this place is awesome for summer but not winter. dumb people everywhere lol.
Nightmare.
Shame of the Clyde ffs
Silly man.
Well someone needs to grow a brain cell or two!
Wtf??
Selfish and ignorant for even trying in a coach.
