I-10 East, Phoenix Metro East

[ThePaulPiper]

I luv Phoenix, Arizona. At first I was talkin about movin 2 New Orleans. But wen I got there I thought 2 myself dat da place was 2 small 4 me. But I will say dat I will visit New Orleans every now and den because I don't hate da place. It's just dat I wanted 2 live in a much bigger city 4 da rest of my life. So wen I moved 2 Phoenix, Arizona wit my family I found myself falling in luv wit da city each and every day. Dat's why I'm stayin here 4 gud and neva leavin.

2 lines might be a no is my prediction of the HOV.

[unnamedDbacksfan]

I live just off to the right at 3:50... next time you drive by, honk!

[Kyukanbun]

4:20 ~ 4:30 -> This trucks went against the traffic regulation because the truck is not allowed to drive in HOV lane. (Of course, HOV Lane is for buses or 2-people-or-more cars)

[Kyukanbun]

4:48 ~ 5:11 : Oooooooh! So many trucks drive in left lane. It is not wrong if the trucks was overtaking. Just like Japanese traffic.

Awww I traveled this way many times

12/8/2010 today markes the 15th anniversary of the 75 mph speed limit in Arizona 

[FreewayBrent]

@ir10031981: Hey, I didn't even think about that, lol. Weren't the speed limits 65 on rural Arizona interstates and 55 through Phoenix and Tucson?

[Skaterman30000]

The highways in Phoneix compared to the ones in LA are really nice! All the freeways are really paved nice and it has nice designs and nice gravel. Nice video! A+ :3

[brewers0048]

Awesome video. The interstate highways in Phoenix seem to be really clean and well maintained.

[refresh967]

@brewers0048 you should see houston's i10. its even better. it's also the widest section of freeway in the world.

[edgexxi]

You should come check out the newly reconstructed 10 fwy in Tucson. It's really cool. Or better yet, the 10 east of Tucson thru the Rincon mtns, pretty kewl drive to Benson.

[FreewayBrent]

Wait, they're *completely* done with reconstruction now? I filmed I-10 in Tucson, but they were still shifting traffic around, back in July.

[cabbey6]

Those speed cameras are too much... although I guess it's still a better option than getting pulled over and catching a lecture.

Great video B

[partydude9999]

Wow nice drive! Im going there in october for a concert lol,and i can't wait to drive on that beautiful freeway!Thanx for uploading this.=)

[FreewayBrent]

No problem! Eventually, I'll have the entire freeway system for Phoenix uploaded onto YouTube. :-)

[thejeremy1000]

Would love if you went north on the 101 in the west valley. Past the cardinal stadium

[north5880]

They have a lot of those LCD billboards in Phoenix! I saw several of them as you went down I-10 in Phoenix. But that's a nice route--the traffic flows very smoothly and the HOV lanes loosen up the fraffic.

[lastfire42]

I Used to Live in Az and yes you can cross the Hov solid lines unlike in LA

[JMB106]

Phoenix looks cool. nice video.

[FreewayBrent]

This is definitely one of the nicest freeways in the Phoenix area.

[JMB106]

Thanks for the reply. Did you decide on Chicago yet?

[FreewayBrent]

Maybe. I'm 50/50 now on whether or not to return to California in September or October now. I'm coming to the realization that I won't be able to see everything that I want in my North American trip, between now and early September. So, if I do decide to extend my trip by an extra month, I may indeed make a 4 or 5 day run to Chicago. One can afford the luxury of time, when unemployed. :-)

[JMB106]

lol I was starting to wonder if you had a job when I was reading through this message. LUCKY!! Chicago is a fun place to be if you know your way around...hopefully you do or know someone in Chicago that does. Enjoy my town...if you go that is :)

[prfsnlwannabe]

If you go to Chicago, I would suggest also doing a side-trip north, and checking out Milwaukee's freeway system. The Marquette Interchange(where I-94, 43, and 794 intersect) was recently rebuilt(and its better than ever), plus going on I-794 is a great way to see Milwaukee's skyline. Best part is driving over the Hoan Bridge near the end of 794, and which goes over the Milwaukee River. (and becomes a bay to the east of the bridge)

[stufdptato]

i didn't know your corolla could do 189mph....nice vid brent!

[FreewayBrent]

lol, thanks mang!

[aswchris]

wtf, a semi blasting by in the HOV lane?

[FreewayBrent]

Arizona allows trucks to use all lanes, unlike in California, which restricts trucks to the right 2 lanes.

Arizona's HOV network only operates during rush hours (I believe between 6 - 9 a.m. and 3 - 7 p.m.). Outside of the HOV restricted periods, trucks can also use the lanes.

[aswchris]

They want to widen I-10 through Tempe to 24 lanes due to an estimated AADT of 450,000 in 2025. If it is that wide, you should definatly come back and make another video :)

[eluko79]

Ive never seen Phoenix before. Awesome video and cool intro. Nice choice in song too.

[FreewayBrent]

Thanks! I still have yet to upload I-17, as well as Loop 101. When I come back to Phoenix in Arizona, I'll record the rest of the freeway network there.

[Freewayjim]

This is indeed your best work yet, excellent content & production all the way.

Lots of light posts, this would be great to film at night.

[ScrewdUpClick2000]

awesome .
