    Would be an interesting show to air these clips and a panel talking about how things have or haven’t changed

      I wanna be on the "worse" panel. I can't get out of my neighborhood without hitting a backup. Living on the west side (Livingston) just about every road is torn up. Traffic is unreal!

    Local 4 should show the old news clips of all the freeway shootings throughout the years, 1992, 2008, and lately.

      Modern journalists are not real concerned about accuracy. It's all about the likes.

    Why does the headline say 1985? And the news report says February 1982?

    0:40 when did M10 go to Novi? And 696 go to downtown?

    • @bobloblaw9679
      @bobloblaw9679 Před 2 lety +7

      696 was built in three parts. the middle section wasn't done until 1989. 696 east used to turn into m10 south at telegraph

      It was still US10 at the time. M-10 wouldn't be named that officially til the late 1980's or early 1990's. It shared junction at Telegraph in Southfield north to Dixie Hwy. Then up I-75. Look on old Michigan maps. It's kind of cool to see how things transitioned over the years in terms of the roads.

      That 696 is now 96 and they changed 696 to outline the lodge and go east after that

    • @arthuridis
      @arthuridis Před 6 měsíci +1

      @@antonioguglielmetti2661 Because the missing portion connecting east and west wasn't built in 1982 when this footage was taken. Construction,acquisition of property didn't start til 1984. The missing link opened in 1989.

      You need to finish high school so you can learn to spell to, too and two in appropriate places. You can also pick up the ability to use commas.
