  • Okay. I have a quick question, for some of this video, the bit your driving on has two lanes, then a barrier then what looks like three or four lanes travelling in the same direction. Are the two lanes pool car only or is it something different?

  • @mryoheylol Actually it's a 3-3-3-3 configuration, the lanes I'm in are for cars only, the outside three lanes are for Cars, Trucks, Buses and whatever, each set of lanes has their own exits and entrances. This "double-barreld" configuration was built in to the turnpike in the late 1960's, early 1970's when traffic in that area became heavier (The Turnpike was originally built in 1951).

  • @mryoheylol Check out my Chicago Dan Ryan Expressway Video, it is similar (3-4-4-3) to NJ.

  • @Freewayjim Yeah but why? What are they separated for?

  • @mryoheylol In the NJ Turnpike's case it is to keep car & truck traffic separated for safety reasons, that is a very heavily travled truck route.

  • I am not from USA, but I thought Interstate highways were free, however thi sis not the case with this portion of I-95, I've been in NJ several times, I know NJ Turnpike and NJ Parkway. Why I-95 in NJ is not free?

  • @racsito39 The Turnpike was built in 1951 as a Toll Road, the Interstate system was built in 1956 and some toll roads were grandfathered in to the Interstate System like the NJTPK, Pa Turnpike, NY Thruway and more (Some Toll Roads built after 1956 were also included in the interstate system). The section of the NJ Turnpike from Exit 6 south to Exit 1 is not marked as an interstate, just the Turnpike.

  • I was just on that part of the NJTPK, it's one of the ugliest drives ever. It may just be New Jersey (im from so i can bash it) It could have just been the rainy weather though. Newark is a dump!!!!
