The length of interstate 5 in California just so happens to be 795 miles long between San ysidro and hornbrook California near the Oregon border. The northern end of interstate 5 is in Blaine Washington.

Why my GPS always tells me to take the 60 freeway to vegas from west los angeles I take the 10 straight to the 15

California state route 91 as a freeway happens to be a 10 lane freeway in Corona where there is currently a flyover ramp being built to connect the eastbound 91 to northbound 71. The new flyover ramp will replace the current single lane connector but I would of preferred the flyover ramp being built to connect the southbound 71 to westbound 91 Instead of the east 91 to 71 north. Do you think the flyover ramp would of been better if it connected the southbound 71 to westbound 91.

Great video and the exits and commentary make you the top road warrior 14:34

Part of my weekly route between San Jose State University and my hometown Vallejo! I am currently a fourth year senior living on-campus! I honestly have a love-hate relationship with this freeway, luckily leaning into love. The love is the scenery and thrill of the drive, the hate being the traffic jams, ESPECIALLY AT/AROUND SUNOL OR WALNUT CREEK. But the 680 is my 2nd favorite freeway in the Bay, behind the 280 of course. I actually clinched both directions of the 680 multiple times already! Great video and great music!

The new interstate 15 and 215 interchange configuration looks similar to the 5 and 14 interchange in Sylmar With the recently added truck bypass lanes on each side.

A familiar Kim Sozzi song has returned! A callback from your older videos!

Very nice drive! Portland is a beautiful city, very green.

The nostalgia you just provided. Thank you!

Brought back memories. I stayed in hotel road by Hampton inn around May 16 to 20,2022. I8 has many memories to me especially fashion valley. I’m back home and I would like to go back to San Diego

Great drive mate. Freeway infrastructure in California is always impressive to see!

Escondido was incorporated in 1888 as stated, but San Diego was incorporated in 1850, so Escondido is the second oldest city in San Diego county, not the oldest. 💪

Nice drive

Update 30-Sep-2023: the first music track got hit with a worldwide block. I scrubbed it out using the web editor to keep the video online.

Nice Driving Videos Bro

I often wonder, this is related to CA-178. The first part of the freeway portion is 6 lanes, but then, it drops to 4, only to raise back to 6 once it downgrades to an expressway. I often wonder, why is it done this way? I feel like it would make more sense for the entire freeway portion to be 6 lanes, then it will still be 6 once it reaches the expressway, and it will be a continuous 6 lanes.

One of my favorite drives. It’s been a long time since I’ve done it, so long I didn’t know 58 was all four lane.

Great job!

Directly ahead as you pass over the peak of the arch is Mount Diablo

The repaving of the road definitely helped with road noise. As of today, the speed limits back to 65. Also, have you noticed everyone on the left lane seems to be going atleast 85?

Advice welcome. Motorcycle purchase planned in Sunnyvale. Returning to North Bay, Petaluma. Purchase will be on a Saturday. Motorcycle's a 650 parallel twin, 46 hp. (mediocre power) Is my 'safest' route back .. -- I-280/19th Ave./Golden Gate Bridge? Absent South Bay 20+ yrs. At that time, I-280 traffic volume markedly less than The 101, or, I-880.

Good job ♥️😀

I still remember after the earthquake in 1989 seeing the collapsed highway on 880 on tv. It was so surreal seeing the top highway pancaked onto the lower highway. I’m glad that they made that section of the highway safer. Hopefully it’ll hold up better when the next earthquake hits.

Those buildings at 4:30 are finally built and got residents. 4:51 stopped having construction on them when the pandemic started and have since looked the same, just unfinished concrete with graffiti

what software do you use for your highway sign graphics?

Maybe we should see the opposite direction of CA-125 South to see the new signs going towards its southern terminus

Update April 2023 the corridor is completed

Is no one going to mention the semi on the 85 at 8:28 even though vehicles heavier than 4.5 tons are banned from the 85?

Something that I can't figure out. Does anyone know the answer to this? Why isn't SR 905 I-905? By the number, it seems like it's supposed to be I-905, but for some reason, isn't. Also, the same thing relating to SR 15. Why isn't it part of I-15?

It is really interesting how the freeway at 13:49 turns into one lane, and even has a traffic light. This presumably is because there isn't many motorists on that section of CA-125, The I-8 flyover to CA-125 South has three lanes, which most likely means that CA-125 gets most of its traffic from I-8. It is obvious why they did this, but it feels kind of off having the freeway turn into one lane, especially since it is very uncommon, and to have a ramp meter. (I assume they are turned on during rush hour traffic). Something interesting that I wanted to point out, Good video through

Thanks for showing us around Greater San Diego mate! Loved the footage, California's freeway infrastructue is always impressive to see

Yet another fantastic ride. Interesting factoid about the flyovers approaching 20:50. This was originally the eastern terminus of the ill-fated California SH-252, which would have connected to I-5 right at the SH-15 split. This would have sliced a wedge right between the Shelltown and Southcrest neighborhoods. A freeway revolt stopped the project from proceeding, but the flyovers were already built. Now it serves as the ramp to 43rd Street and ends rather sheepishly at a shopping center. Another revolt stopped the construction of SH-171 which would have decimated the connection between South Park and North Park by connecting downtown to the I-1805/SH-15 interchange. Like before, ramps were already built and were re-purposed as the ramp to Pershing Blvd through eastern Balboa Park. Thankfully, these ill-conceived projects that would have chopped distinctive San Diego neighborhoods apart were killed in the cradle.

Awesome drive

Great vid! This route is what I used a bunch of times!

Awesome

I'm glad you saw and drove the new completed bridge. I wish FWJ would've seen that when it's complete. Back in 2019, FWJ saw the construction progress of the new bridge when he drove the old one before it was dismantled.

The 10 between L.A. and the Inland Empire sure is busy and wide like 8+ lanes. This portion of I-10 obviously replaces US 70/US 99. So, in your prefence, between L.A. County and the Inland Empire, which of the 4 freeways you rather use for most of the time? The 210, 10, 60 or 91? For me, I prefer to take the 91, even though it's the busiest and that wide, but thankfully, it has express toll lanes for FasTrak.

Awesome

This looks cool. Keep it up!

Hello, Justin! Will you be planning for another trip this year to start Season 12?

Nice drive

How slow you go with the speed limit? You can go 10 mph over

Here's my opinions on how wide this road should be in the areas it traverses through the Mojave Desert. Section between Hesperia and Barstow, be widened to 8 lanes minimum, as the section through Barstow itself. Once it leaves Barstow, it goes down to 6 lanes, with the mountainous sections being 8 lanes. This, is the perfect setup IMO.

I think you meant east since you went eastbound.

It's amazing how far along this channel has come. I remember the days of Season 00 back in 2011, when CC215 was nothing more than a four lane road with traffic lights. Dang, I wish I could see those videos again just for the nostalgia.

Awesome

really wonderful and moody road for a hot summer afternoon :)

11:44 wow those fireworks in the distance made the video better! Great job!

19:39 I 40 didnt replace 466 east of barstow, it use to run to las vegas with 91 now 15 and then ran south to kingman with 93 over the hoover dam

You should show it off during commute hours……… it’s a nightmare!
