We might complain about traffic jams or the odd pothole, but when we see a video like this, we realise that British roads aren't *that* bad...

The Alwas-Killar Road bus route is in northern India's remote Pangi Valley, as the video suggests, is one of the world's most dangerous.

Cut into the rocky cliffs of the Himalayas, the road is barely wide enough for the vehicles that travel on it, with a fatal drop towards the valley floor never more than a couple of metres away.

As if that wasn't enough for this driver to contend with, there's the small matter of driving through a waterfall.
