They should be using chains or similar restraining device as these would stop the spinning which causes serious damage to tyres & transmission.@@0210mick
Did not expect this to be from my home country, Norway. I hate snow. I hate driving on it even more. Probably I would not have handled it like this driver did. Must be somewhere in Bærum this?
Close to Dikemark, Strømnsveien I think this particular stop is called. The problem with the snow lies in all the roadsalt they use. Not all drivers know of mechanical sympathy.
Been in a similar situation over here in Finland, several buses in a small hill with really wet snow and slush, allthough it wasn't a merc, but a Scania lahti scala.
Too much pressure this bus gone crazy!!! How come being with that? Wasn't cancelled those bus for rest until special salt lorry on the road, before local buses restore on operating. Absolutely madness done like THIS!
Apparently the high pitch sound is emitted by the spinning tyres, not to be mistaken it as the high revving of the engine. Sometimes the thread of the tyres on slippery surfaces do emit such high pitch sound.
