Driving from Bronx to Manhattan · 4K 

how long would it have taken using to subway?

@@davidcarias4407 20min faster

@@metalmadness90000 how come everyone doesn't take the subway then?

@@samuelpo3378 We do lots of people do not own cars and never will unless you move out to the burbs down the line. Subway for all its flaws is pretty reliable apart from the random delays but it will usually get you from one part of the city to another pretty fast.

@@nickpacal8418 how come people even love I'm NYC?

Common practice here in NYC

Exactly😂

Kind of miss getting that phone call every 5 minutes

You're kind of forced to drive a certain way though, aren't you? Doesn't look like there's much room for experimentation.

Have you ever been to Rome?

If you think driving in NYC is a war, you should try driving here in Italy

bro really put the (ohh st louis and atlanta also) 💀💀💀 npc

You haven't driven in any major South European city, that's a super war.

perhaps the traffic moves so slow that it doesn't rly matter, since the risk of crashing is slim, plus everyone does it, it would certainly suck to be a cop in that traffic too.

@esl4058 1 second ago I’m an electrician who has to drive a van loaded up with tools to job sites. I can tell you that most people on the road not only obey the traffic laws but encourage others to. Whenever you see a car doing something crazy or reckless it’s almost always a cab or a bike. Contrary to what movies show, most cabs in NYC today are not yellow but look like regular cars. You can spot them by their license plates which always start with a T and end with a C (Taxi Cab). Cabs are notoriously awful on the road and bikers do whatever they want. As a pedestrian you have to constantly keep an eye out for bikes even more so then the cars.

If I didn't jaywalk, I'd never get anywhere.

@@esl4058 What is actually surprising in this video that there are barely any motorcycles on the roads. This is much unlike European traffic.

I've lived in both places and have to say that NYC drivers while being more of assholes are better drivers becuase we're used to unexpected shit

My sister lived on a busy street in SF for a while. She said the noise actually helped her sleep after a while. Said it was weird to come back home to our town where it was totally silent after 1 am.

@@ct6852 They say that if you grew up in a noisy environment, then noise is gonna help, but if you grew up in silence, then it's gonna be stressful

@@MikaelMahsudjan Could be, some people actually use white noise machines to help falling asleep but it's not generally recommended to keep those on for extended periods of time, like overnight. Noise pollution is shown to be real health hazard in multiple studies, but so is insomnia on the other hand, and these hazards don't depend on personal preference.

@@jarivuorinen3878 i get what you mean but in this case apparently if you have adapted to the certain noise(living next to train station?), meaning you were born and lived there your formidable years - then you are so used to that noise, that when you move away to a quiet location and try to sleep, you cannot because there isn't that noise your whole being was adapted to. So quiet is stressful until you get adapted to quiet, but that might take some time in example I have given. I for example cannot sleep with slightest of noise because I got used to dead silence growing up in village. City is never that quiet. I use earplugs whole day because the less noise there is the less stressed I feel.

its really a crime ! All city planners should be arrested for that.

Probably furiously refreshing Twitter, salivating at the thought of his Lord and Savior Elon Musk posting another tweet.

@@michaelp.3485 Show us on the doll where elon hurt you

For real. Makes me dizzy.

That's why you take the subway

well duh, the entire world copied the USA's road infrastructure, especially a neighboring country like Mexico

Mexico has always been a mess.

It’s always like this. I live in the area but you won’t catch me there unless we’re heading south away from NYC.

That’s why people are leaving I heard and I’m from London uk

There is a reason why there aren't mice as large as elephants. As size grows, so does the shape and the layout of the animal. The same is valid for countries and cities. It would be prohibitively expensive to lay power cables underground in city (or country) that is much more spaced out.

@@SelfReflective NYC is more densely populated than most European cities. So, per capita, underground cables are cheaper in NYC than in most European cities.

@@MrEddy-bm3eo No, that's not the point. It's not like NYC is going to have a completely different paradigm than the rest of the US.

@@SelfReflective Manhattan already has underground power lines. The Bronx can do better. Above ground power lines in parts of a city as dense as NYC is what I called amazing.

dont be soft

Try a Queens or Brooklyn bike lane ☠

Yeah and then the traffic gets worse genius

probably a Tesla on autopilot

That’s the problem here in NYC. Stupid , selfish drivers. It’s all about them. Won’t give you a break to just change lanes.

Does Munich have the highest population density in Germany?

@@ct6852 Yes, that's correct. But the density is much less than in NYC.

That’s because Democrats have always been in charge there.😢

You obviously live where it doesn’t snow. Road salts eat up car metals, what do you think it would do to asphalt ?

@@Eye-it-azz If you READ my comment, I think the EXTREMELY HIGH taxes there should resurface the roads there every year. …..and yes, life is GREAT here in L.A.!! 🌞🌞🌞

@@eddieg6436 Again, you’re talking outta your assss. Truck drivers would literally quit than go into NY, that’s how congested it is, what nickname does NY have ? The City that never sleeps. It would be easier to break into the White House than to shut down roads for repairs and maintenance every year, only a moron would say “New York roads needs to be repaired and maintained every year” Have you heard of criminals using cars to commit crime in NY ? You would sit in traffic while the cops put you in cuffs. You sound like you haven’t been anywhere where it snows.

@@eddieg6436 You sound extremely intelligent. Waste billions of dollars every year fixing roads ? Dude, you’re from California, California ranks amongst the top 3 states with the worst roads, you’re from California and have the audacity to talk about NY roads ? 😂 I wasn’t expecting much from some dumb kid on the internet

Happens when there are too many roads for too many cars, that are too heavy. US infrastructure is a ponzi scheme

Hiii

I don’t know about beautiful. I live here. Lol

👍👍

@@liberty4175 The driver started in Morris Park which is a pretty nice place tbh

Be@utiful....fantastic!

Lol right. I was like wtf?

how do you like it there

I don’t like her policies but she inherited all the mess. She’s made it worse when it comes to crime.

It's called 8 million people in 1 city

While I live in Europe, I think this is something to be said about not only New York City, but North America in general. Namely that your towns, cities and endless suburbias are like living organisms with the number of stores being higher per capita, the traffic more severe, but also more motional and as you say, there’s something going on and to pay attention for at every street. My experience in Europe is that our urban areas and street life are generally more stagnant and sterile in comparison

@@user-hu3iy9gz5j I don't know where you're from but in United States it is only like that in large cities and mostly just Los Angeles Chicago NYC San Francisco and maybe Seattle and Miami, the rest is equally as stagnant and sterile, even more than most European towns
