Does the FastTrak work in every toll? By this I mean does the FastTrak on the 73 work on the 91 Carpool lanes or on the i-15 in rancho bernardo?

[FreewayBrent]

@HoltCalifornia: freewaydan largely answered your question, but I'll elaborate a little bit more. FasTrak is the California statewide electronic toll collection system, which means it can be used along any toll facility in the state. FasTrak is also accepted for parking at San Francisco Int'l Airport.

I know it wouldn't benefit many automobile owners, but I'd personally like to see all the electronic toll agencies merge together, so only one transponder...(cont. in next posting)

[FreewayBrent]

@HoltCalifornia: (cont. from part 1)...so only one transponder would be needed, which would be very convenient for nationwide truckers. I have 3 transponders in my car, with a 4th one probably in my future collection ("Good-To-Go!" in Washington State).  In fact, I would like to see it expanded to cover all of Canada and perhaps even Mexico, too.

Very nice video. Gives a good view on the beautiful landscape when driving downhill :-)

[FreewayBrent]

@tigerwesti1: Yes, and that's exactly why I recorded it in the southbound direction. The northbound direction is great too, but you don't get quite the same thrill as one gets, driving southbound.

@Overlocked1: Thanks!

Wide and comfortable highway I see.

Hilly landscape look a bit familliar to me like on Kraków neighbourhood.

Thums up!

Another good view is the 241 southbound, although it will lead you to nowhere after the 261/133 interchange

Another excellent video....but where do you get the great graphics for your videos - you know, the signs that look exactly like the real thing?

[Gamerzde]

Sooo inpressive. Another good video you made. I´ll hope I can visit you one day. ^^

@PanzerVIZeke: CA 241 is another amazing drive, although I'm not sure the views are quite as dramatic as what you'll find along CA 73. I'm definitely in support of a higher gas tax (despite prices being $4+ a gallon in California now). The tolls along the Orange County network are fairly pricey, but you *do* get what you pay for. I can't even tell you how many collective hours of time I've saved, bypassing I-5, I-405, CA 55 and the western half of CA 91.
