Mountain rescuers have branded as "dangerous" the audacity of a driver who steered a 4x4 vehicle close to the summit of Snowdon.

It is believed the Vauxhall was abandoned on Saturday morning as it may have become stuck on the descent - about 400 yards (365m) from the top.

Ian Henderson from Llanberis Mountain Rescue says national park and emergency crews would never attempt the drive.

Suprised it even got out the car park :S

Actually thinking about, its facing down hill, so it must have got upto the top else its been drove all up there in reverse if any of you have even been up there theres not exactly anywhere to turn cars around except the view point at the top.
