Thanks for the video. I've heard so much about this bridge. Better than seeing it on Google Street View!

[FreewayBrent]

Ha, of course. Although I won't be surprised if one of these days, Google actually starts recording video of the entire Interstate Highway System and annotates the videos in a similar matter. If they could pull off Streetview, there's really no telling what they'll do next...

Hey I'm from Tampa. Are you gonna be posting any vids on into the city?

[FreewayBrent]

I'll be uploading videos of I-275 from St. Petersburg to a little bit north of the I-4/I-275 interchange in Tampa, as well as the Lee Roy Selmon Expressway (FL Toll Route 618). Stay tuned. :-)

[FreewayBrent]

Oh yeah, I almost forgot...I have a quick tour of I-175 to I-275 to I-375, and then back along I-375, I-275 and I-175 in St. Petersburg.

Cool your first HD video ;D

[FreewayBrent]

I have over 20 videos in HD now. My first page is basically nothing but HD videos from around the country. I just haven't filmed any (save for a quickie I-105/I-110 Los Angeles interchange video) HD videos in California (yet).

@StreetsofATL Yes it is.  Interstate 275 has a concurrency with US 19 from 34 St S (Exit 17) to just south of the southern toll plaza at Exit 5.

Right after the original Sunshine Skyway southbound span was destroyed on 9 May 1980 there was talk of not including Interstate 275 as part of the Sunshine Skyway. Luckily, the Florida DOT moved ahead to include Interstate 275 as part of the Sunshine Skyway when the new bridge was built.

nothing better than black top road and luscious green sides!

[StreetsofATL]

Is the Sunshine Skyway still considered U.S. hwy 19? I know that it was U.S. 19 and not I-275 in 1980 when the original Sunshine Skyway was destroyed.

1:15~1:28 ->Cool! The truck went through inside-lane ETC tollway. But it is a pity that it is forbidden in Taiwan!

Good vid - I'm really nervous of going over by myself so having a 1st person perspective has helped a little. Btw what's the song - it's awesome!
