- This video is a remixed version of video #13-31 from 2013 (which is muted) and the first half of video #13-32. It follows CA-110 South from Pasadena through DTLA to I-110 south to CA-47 and the Ports and eventually to I-710 North in a disk to dark setting. All music and equipment FAQ's are in the closing credits.

It’s my dream to visit and one day live here
It's been almost two years, I been watching this video like almost every day!! I hope one day I get a chance and see the beautiful California and it's sunset. I love the songs too. Well done.
Thanks and I hope you get to see it someday too, it's a pretty special place.
Can't go wrong with an LA sunset, well done!!
They are beautiful, thank you!
Just subsribed to your chanell josh
This video is just magical! I have no words! Thank you for making it!
I'm glad you enjoy it, thank you!
This video really is something special, I can’t contain myself from coming back to it at least once a week. Watching this completely soothes my soul no matter what I’m going through, and some parts of this video are just pure magic. Like at 4:05...man I don’t know how you do it: the intensifying of the song just as you pass through the interchange and reveal the downtown L.A. skyline... it’s pure magic, I can’t help but feel so hyped up at that part, like as hyped up as a really cool scene in a movie would make me. You make it look so easy, I’ve tried doing videos like this and I can’t make them magical like yours. CZcams doesn’t get any better than this video right here!
Thank you for sharing that, I'm truly glad you enjoy it so much, that's what the videos are here for, as for making it look easy? It's just a feel I guess, I just do what seems to make sense at the time when I'm putting things together.
Excellent looking video and a great fun ride. I liked seeing California. The music was great too, especially that last song. I definitely heard Patti Smith the way Johnette sang it. Thanx for posting this.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it.
Just got back from LA and that skyline had changed a lot. Great video and notes.
Thank you!
I can literally listen to this for a century and not get tired of it
Thanks, glad you like it!
Literally all the song in my playlist are from you
@@hallindpropertiesllc9331 That's pretty cool, thanks for sharing that!
How did you find Johnette's dancing barefoot
@@hallindpropertiesllc9331 On this CD, about 20 years ago, it has some great covers. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spirit_of_%2773:_Rock_for_Choice
That has always been one of my favorite drives in LA. And no matter how many times I have seen it, whenever downtown LA comes into view it is exciting. Kind of like coming out of the tunnel in 24W towards San Francisco, when SF suddenly appears on the horizon (I think you have a video of that somewhere too).
Thanks, the previous video (17-01) in fact.
Owe Jay amazing my friend, i Will go to lós Angeles next mouth and i Will do this way, thank for this beautiful vídeo
It’s been an absolute dream to drive on those pieces of the highway because every time I go to DisneyLand I use that highway but I haven’t gone as far as you have.
Thank you for watching!
I watch this video at least couple times a month for a year now :P. It's my fav episode along with these from Las Vegas. These 3 songs fits perfect here. I Hope someday i will visit U.S. Greetings from Poland!
Thank you very much, I hope you get to visit the US as well.
I wish I can give this video (two likes), this was a very entertaining ride! I don't understand why people would dislike your video, evidently they don't see the quality or share the excitement when they view your work. Very nice Jim!!
Thank you, I was happy with how this one turned out.
Great to see Los Angeles again! A nice selection of music as well, I did not know any of these songs :)
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you, this kinda of stuff puts me in a chill mood.
You are most welcome and thank you for watching.
@@Freewayjim Well Jim, it's been a year, and I am in need or a stress release video. I will always return to this gem of a video, I'll never forget it. Feeling much better now. Thanks bro
@@tommyv4980 Thank you, glad I could help :)
@@Freewayjim You thought I forgot about this, didn't you? :) It's that time again..thanks Jim!
@@tommyv4980 Anytime ;)
Loved this video, I'm very familiar with the 110 freeway and the L.A./L.B. harbor area, and just to give you an update, the Gerald Desmon Bridge is nearing completion and should be opening up for traffic in early 2021.
Thank you! Yep it won't be long until the bridge is open.
Hola jim gracias x compartir tus vídeos nos ases conocer Estados Unidos yo vivo en México no hablo inglés pero me encantan tus vídeos, algún día primero Dios espero conocer ese Gran país que es Estados Unidos siempre a sido mi sueño...saludos desde México
Thank you very much for watching, I'm glad you enjoy the videos and seeing the USA.
@@Freewayjimyou speak spanish????!!!!😮
@@FreewayJay-g1l I do not.
@@Freewayjimbut h9w did you read that comment???
@@FreewayJay-g1l Google transalte (copy & paste)
Fantastic video as always! I just got back from LA and I remember doing a majority of this drive! That Stack and the Judge Harry interchange are absolute wonders to see in person!
Thanks Joe and indeed they are!
Idk how I stumbled across your channel, & I certainly didn't think watching a video of someone driving would be interesting. Nevertheless, I clicked on this 1 (Native Californian. Lived in Highland Park. Been living in ATL. since 2003). So glad I did give this a chance! I watched it with my 17 year old son. And pointed out points of my own drive whilst pregnant with him. Brought back great memories that I was able to share with my son!!! Thank You!
Thank you for the great comment and for watching!
i could see this video the entire day and be so high in the same time
Thank you!
I would like to live there someday
!!!
you make great videos with good music
.
Everything in your videos are very great, I've watched several times
....
This is a bueatiful video sunset With Good music
Thank you very much!
Nice, and I love how you film this drive at dusk. A perfect day since there's hardly any clouds you get all the colors.
Thank you!
The ports used to be the Naval Shipyard. Good memories from there and driving on that bridge was a daily trip/commute
This is so cool😮 i love the sky i love this place i never seen such a beatiful sunset in My life❤
Thank you!
Awesomeness! Driving the 110 towards DTLA during sunset is classic California cruising at some of its finest. I envy you for the relative lack of traffic throughout..wish my driving experiences through LA were as easy as in this video, lol.
Thank you, after hearing all the horror stories about traffic I was surprised and relieved that it was what it was, did get stuck in it on the Hollywood Freeway later that night though.
New Town velocity!!! Beautiful sky, road and city
Thank you!
Those tight on ramps and exit ramps remind me of Interstate 70 between Washington, PA and New Stanton, PA before PennDOT started to really reconstruct the interchanges.
Thank you very much for this calm ride. It's always nice to watch your videos! greetings from Israel
Thank you very much!
Great remake! I miss the original, the second song from that is a favorite. The 110 became my favorite LA route due to how it varies. Wished for your lighting, my drive was dark.
Thank you, hopefully you'll get another shot at it in better lighting conditions.
Great remix video, Jim. The soundtrack for this one is very smooth and laid back. I even found myself drifting off a bit. Good thing you were doing the driving.
Looking forward to whatever you may have planned for this year's videos.
Thanks Daniel.
That is one beautiful city.
Coming for the highways and the music. Loving the selection
Beautiful remix. So nice to watch. Chris Isaak at the beginning--- such a fine choice. I watched it while running on the treadmill, I want to run more and watch it again...Wonderful video as always...
Thank you very much!
Very beautiful. Very interesting. Thank you so much. I need to be there
Thank you for watching!
I been watching this video for three years dreaming to visit LA one day in real life.
LA is one of my favorite cities, hope you get there and thank you for watching!
@@Freewayjim I was just in Los Angeles. Dream came true! I still can't believe I've been to LA! SO LUCKY
@@meerfaiaq Awesome! glad you got there.
Toujours super GENIAL vos vidéo merci et salutations depuis la suisse
Thank you
To be honest this video is the coolest sunset video ive seen
Thank you! I appreciate that.
That was very nice and the sky was beautiful ! 5*
Thank you!
I really love the sky's color in this footage
Phenomenal video, a piece of Art in itself, really enjoyed it - thanks from Oslo, Norway :)
Thank you very much for the kind words.
This may be your best video. What a beautiful stretch of road.
Thanks, I appreciate that!
What is it about these videos that they are so soothing and pleasant to watch? Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
Great work guys, love it ... hope one day I'll visit LA!
Thanks.
I lived in South Pasadena in 2014-15, right behind the water treatment plant where the video begins. I believe that stretch of the 110 (up to Fair Oaks) was Route 66 for a while.
Yes it was, thanks for watching!
Freeway Jim people dont realize the sheer size of l.a. until u drive it. It seems like you were driving n the 110 for hours lol! And thats jus the 110 smh crazy!!!
An interesting area for sure with a lot of places seen in the movies. Not sure that I would want to live in CA, but I enjoy visiting.
Rand McNally's Road Atlases still label the Arroyo Seco as the Pasadena Freeway, even though it hasn't been officially named that in over 10 years.
You are correct, weird!
This is cool i like the pinkesh sky i can feel it from here great jop!
Thank you!
absolutely love your choice of music.
Thank you! much appreciated.
Very beautiful as always!
Thank you!
All those lights. Beautiful.
They were, thank you.
Nice work as always. Pasadena freeway is like a timewarp.
The 110 feels like the Saw Mill/Henry Hudson Parkways of the west.
nice video! i like the sunset very cool to see😍
Thank you!
Correction: That's an LA Metro Green Line(AKA Light Rail) station. Metrolink is LA's commuter rail.(AKA Big diesel commuter train) Huge ass difference.
1:43 -- Exit 5 MPH.
And that's probably meant to be taken both literally and seriously.
Yes! they are very short ramps.
countenanceblog For some reason, 1940 LA planners felt that the point of freeways was so that you could drive slowly on them. Strange
Freewayjim what made u start doing these videos?
I was taking a lot of pictures before this and I saw a few earlier driving videos from other roadgeeks and figured I could do something similar and it just blossomed from there.
I commute on the pasadena freeway, the freeway entrances have STOP SIGNS and leave ZERO room to accelerate.
One thing I don't miss about the old Pasadena/Arroyo Seco fwy are the insanely short exit/entrance ramps.
Just love the pinkish,purple sky mixed with a blueish hue ! I LOVE ❤️ the night California sky and the way you captured that in your video along with the ride as well! You make great riding videos and pay attention to details and very well done!! Are you familiar and have you driven what’s known as the Y or El Toro exchange on I-5? I enjoy watching your videos and the music!!
just found ur channel sir and subbed instantly.
Thanks, I appreciate that!
this really is an excellent video.
+Asphalt Planet, All of His Videos are : )
I could be wrong but the section of the 110 that went under the Pregerson (and on down to LAX) is where the iconic chase scene in Heat involving DeNiro & Pacino began.....
What a good video this is, Jim. If I'm not wrong, there was one more video from Ventura to Pasadena titled 'The Roads to Pasadena.' I can't find that video. Did you take it down?
Thank you, the copyright police took that video down unfortunately.
Driving in NJ if I had a dollar for every time I've seen that move at 10:25. Great job as always!!
Thanks, lol.
wow the music is awesome with video.one of my new fav channels !!!!!!!!!! thanks
Thank you for the comment and for watching!
Gerald Desmond Bridge still not replaced with the new one. Only a few sections of the replacement bridge have been built as of now.
Yeah I saw it, was there in late July, new video coming next month.
Various segments are very familiar to me. Other segments are yet to be explored (someday). Hope we can get back to LA before too much more time passes, it's been 4 years since my last 2 trips in 2013 (June and August).
Great tunage, too!
Thank you, hope we both get chances to get back there, so much to explore.
Kaydrah Communications Wanderlust go somewhere in California besides LA
nice view and very useful
Thank you!
Nice video! thanks for sharing... ✌🏼😋
Thank you for watching!
Great remix Jim. Sorry your original vision got muted, but this laid-back soundtrack and extended drive more than made up for it.
Thank you very much, had enough time to think about how to re-work it I suppose :)
4:08 ... The four level stack near downtown LA is important. I think that it was the first four level stack in the United States. This very elegant design which moves traffic well and takes up far less real estate than other designs is now used across the country. It is most expensive because of the number of bridges needed, but is capable of moving cars through the interchange at freeway speeds.
This one was indeed the first but it is badly outdated and antiquated....most stacks actually take up more real estate, you should see the ones in Texas.
@@Freewayjim
I have driven in Dallas and Houston back in the late 1970s and early 80s. From watching your videos I know that they have many more today and of course LA has the new 105 century freeway which has some impressive stacks as well.
The problem in LA now is they have far more traffic than their beautiful freeways can handle.
Sensational ride as usual. Of the 4 or 5 videos i've seen of yours, they've been largely soundtracked with US Country or Americana but track 2 stood out as sounding different and more to own my taste (UK indie/alternative/dance) so was pleasantly surprised that it was Johnny Marr. Sounds like his work with New Order's Bernard Sumner as "Electronic". Never got around to buying The Messenger album. Chris Isaak is a God for completely different reasons.
Thanks, I really don't use country/americana very often (unless we have very different definitions of those genres), I like to think I have a nice mix of classic rock, hard rock, jazz, dance/electronic, alternative, R&B, pop and oldies, I've even used rap in two videos. Glad you liked it just the same.
I clearly need to watch more of your videos in that case! No time like the present :-)
Drove around LA in Dec and liked it so much I went back last month to drive the PCH. PS - JOHNNY MARR!
The second song fits very well with the landscape and sunset. The interchange from 6:40 to 6:58 looks cool, but I'm not sure it can hold a candle to the interchange at I-635 and US-75 in Dallas. :)
Thanks, It more than holds a candle, those interchanges are 1 and 1A above the rest for sure, seen em both up close and driven them in almost every direction. I love them both but saying one is better than the other is basically a coin flip. Both have ramps that are 120 feet above the lowest level at their highest points.
I really like how some of your videos are calm while others are more fast paced
Thanks, that's on purpose, I don't want them to all look and feel the same.
Freewayjim yea like this and sensory overload are very different
Amazing video..I loved it..very cool..BD
Thank you very much!
Hi Jim I'm a new fan to your channel absolutely love every video!!! I'm planning a cross country trip from DMV area to LA via I-40 any suggestions of interesting stops along that route?
Thank you for watching! as for the route you are taking, any of the old Route 66 towns are interesting to see and celebrate the old road, the best ones I've stopped at would be Williams and Seligman in Arizona. Big Texan Steakhouse in Amarillo Texas is also a fun "tourist trap". Sounds like an awesome trip, safe travels!
@@Freewayjim Thanks so much for those suggestions we will for sure go to the steak house in Amarillo!!
@@ajonesa1231 Awesome, hope you have a good time there, it's right off I-40, you can't miss it.
I love this place
I love the first song! 😍😚❤❤
What is the max allowed speed on this route (I'm from Europe) and how long does it take you to get to the ports?
Good remake Jim - glad that it's out there again.
Thank you and thanks for song #2, after 3+ years I finally used it.
Great Job Jim. You really are the king of the comeback this year. I've actually stayed in Pasadena when i went to LA 3 years ago. Have you thought about where you want to go this year?
Thank you James, I don't have anything set yet for this year, some things I'm thinking about but it's been a crazy year so far. If I do go somewhere it may not be until late July or August.
I deadass seen this video like 3-4 times in a row it's beautiful and the music. By the way I live in California but haven't been in LA. Love the East Coast and Boston.
Thank you for watching!
@@Freewayjim Aww :) You're welcome have been since 2013, "Boston street tour" was the very first video I saw I was interested in history and Boston thanks to my then 5th grade teacher and still am I will thank her one day. And thank you for sharing your beautiful videos with us, you have a great taste in music and your taste also influenced and blended in with mine, watching your videos give me hope and inspiration, maybe I'm just a dreamer and love looking at the sky. Thanks again.
Edit: You're videos make me love this country even more. God bless her and her beauty. ❤️💪🏿💪🏾💪🏽💪🏼💪🏻🇺🇸🗺️🗽🏙️🚘
@@maria-melek Well I appreciate that and I'm glad you enjoy the videos (and the music) and thank you very much for the kind comment.
3:57 you passed my apartment :D (It's on the right of the camera, out of view)
Another great video😍🤗
Thank you!
10:25 - cop didn't see you, you didn't do it...
Great video. Looking forward to more this year...
LOL, indeed and thanks.
Freewayjim meh, cops probably have much larger fish to fry than simply busting someone driving around 4x-ish!
If you were driving a semi, however, that alone would most likely put you MUCH higher up on Highway Patrol's shit list for some reason... idk exactly why... someone else willing to clarify???
Very enjoyable. Thanks for posting
Thank you for watching.
LOVE that entrance into downtown LA! @4:17
Yes, same here.
Actually it 4:09
I was just wondering last night when you'd post something again
LOL, great minds work alike.
Jim always has something in store for us. :-)
LA, Long Beach ports combined are the busiest container ports in the world.
Again, another birthday ride along like the New York run.
The Arroyo Seco Pkwy reminds me of the NY parkways.
que bonita Ciudad
This was a good one.
Thank you!
+Will Boyd, Great Profile Picture!
This is so cool❤
Thank you!
Greatly appreciate the video Jim
Thanks Bubba.
I hear Alaska calling your name
LOL, sorry, not interested.

Great video, I've always wondered though, how are your videos not bumpy at all?
Thanks, it's a combination of a car with a good suspension, a heavy tripod that is well secured in the car and a camcorder with amazing image stabilization.
Wow...thanks!
Great music !
Much appreciated, thank you!
@@Freewayjim your welcome! Great freeway scenery too !
@@margaretbatson83 Thank you, that's what this channel is all about!
It’s the “Gone in 60 Seconds” green bridge!
Great music and video, one thing, at the end it still says copyright 2015. Time to change it to 2017!
Thanks, I have not made a new closing credits yet, but at least you stayed for them, if more people did they'd have their questions answered, lol :)
