Hah, NC tag at 4:30! lol The MARTA station at 7:14 is desperately in need of a renovation. Thanks for the tour! I always enjoy 'riding' along with you haha.
This looks like a nice, green area. Love those big trees. An interesting drive with lots to see. Lucky to capture that train crossing the road bridge! Nice to see people walking about, too.
Really, it's a PITA (I like how you abbreviated that) to drive in either lane with numerous driveway access. The reason being a lot of commercial areas have the double left turn lane, which drivers use to merge into traffic. So, you have to move in an out of either lane all of the time, if its four through lanes (two either direction) and double left turn lane.
There are two other frontage road (C/D roads) systems in Metro Atlanta: the one on Peachtree Industrial Boulevard/S.R. 141, between I-285 and just south of Peachtree Parkway; and on I-85 between Georgia 316 and Old Peachtree Road (not apart of Peachtree Street in Atlanta).
It's cool how GDOT incorporated the Texas U-turn into the mix.
Such a great video, a prime example of those seemingly endless commercial stretches in Georgia. Just a question, why are all of the traffic lights in Georgia on a wire vs a steel pole?
There are some newer traffic light installations that have the mast arms (steel pole), but it's not that many. Like you said, most of the wire installations that I've seen are wire installations. I prefer the mast arm installations, because they don't waft in the wind.
Very nice! Your already good videos keep getting better and better

Thanks.
Yeah, alot of the older cities and the newer ones value the beauty of trees and nature. Except with all of these new subdivision popping up.

Indeed very lucky to capture the train. Don't get a chance to capture too many on video.

A lot of driveway access. It's a PITA if you drive on the right lane.

Yeah, it's a pretty cool drive. Haven't been through Downtown Decatur in awhile. An ample reason to do a drive-through.
