Following the previous video, thought I'd film from the front seat on the upper deck to see what it's like ascending and descending those challenging hills, that either tests the engine to it's limits or test the bus driver's braking ability.
But looks like I got more than I bargained for in the end apart from the amazing scenery, starting off with a car driver causing unnecessary road rage then my phone overheating for no reason which is typical of iPhone 12s.
Then by the time it started to behave again, the bus was quickly descending the steep incline towards Kettlewell and was struck by many trees. I was thinking that eventually, the windows will crack and KABOOM!!! It happened! At least the whole thing didn't come off, but it left sharks of glass everywhere on the front panel.
I don't blame the driver, he did a W job driving the bus. And I don't blame the bus company either as they allocate double deckers to accommodate passenger demand. Like what others say on my TikTok, I think it's more of the council's responsibility to sort out those low hanging trees. From what a passenger has said, the same thing has happened 2 months ago.
