Interstate 405 - Orange County Express Toll Lanes - January, 2024 

Loving the California coverage! No matter how many times I watch these videos they never get old! Also oof for that 3 lane closure…

Can't believe that the 405 express lanes are finally complete. I remember driving through that stretch of the 405 back in 2021 and I was annoyed with all the construction going on, so that's good that its done! Hopefully it will improve the flow of traffic, as the 405 is notorious for having horrible traffic Also coincidentally, I was visiting Irvine that same day you were filming, which is cool. Great video as always!

Great Footage Bro! Nice drive thru I-405.

Your LA videos are honestly really cool, I love how they're adding more express toll lanes on their freeways these days! I,m sure they inspired several other states to do the same. Also, did you know that the Arroyo Seco Parkway is actually America's 1st full freeway? It opened in 1940, 16 years before the interstate highways.

It's always fun to see California freeways change over the years - I moved out of country 20 years ago and it all looks so different.

Bro the 110 freeway reminds me that is like a freeway that is little

It's a good thing the express toll lanes of the 405 in Orange County are complete. Imagine there's traffic on the local lanes of the 405 in Orange County for drivers travelling between Long Beach and San Diego, and you can use the express toll lanes to skip the traffic of the 405 and you can take the 73 to pay another toll, bypassing the El Toro Y.

Great drive! Did you know that Interstate 66 in Virginia is tolled (from Monday to Friday 5:30 AM to 9:30 AM Eastern time for eastbound and 3 PM to 7 PM Eastern time for westbound) for all lanes just west of Washington DC between exit 69 and exit 72? This requires E-ZPass to pay toll. And it is free if there's 3 or more people in the vehicle (driver included) and with E-ZPass Flex switch to HOV mode on (non-switchable E-ZPass tags is always paying mode even 3 or more people is in the vehicle) or traveling with motorcycles. Outside hours and weekends is free without E-ZPass.

Noticed the 110 has some new signs; some from its northern terminus to I-5 are duplicates, does anyone know why signs may be duplicated?

I’ve been on California state route 133 and this freeway would of been longer had it not ended at Laguna canyon road south of interstate 405. Why isn’t California state route 133 a freeway between Laguna canyon road in Irvine and pacific coast highway in Laguna Beach? Travel between Irvine and Laguna beach would be faster if the 7.8 miles of California state route 133 between The Pavona / Laguna canyon intersection in Irvine and pacific coast highway was a freeway through Laguna canyon.

I don't understand why they'd take the HOV lane and make it an express tollway lane...! Makes no sense unless it's for revenue.

Great video, but... In my opinion it was too fast at the beginning (about to 2:45). And two other great fews would be better in slower speed: (2:40-3:00 skycrapers) and (4.45-5:00 interchange). Sorry. I am just a viewer from Finland; motorway developing country 🙂
