Beautiful video. When I have reached AP7 at Jonquera I am almost done on my Europe crossing to Costa Daurada and can almost smell the mediterranean sea. Thanks for posting.
The two songs in this video are masterpieces. Also the motorway in its kind of road construction. When I drive on motorways here in Germany listen to the two songs too.
This Spanish motorway is very well built indeed... perfect... I've been watching this video loads of time since its upload... and songs chosen are stunning! I can see myself travelling across this road and having these songs as soundtrack.
1:07 I've been on that high-speed railway line to the left (the Girona-Paris service for a half-term holiday back in the North of Europe), and the road looks so quaint from there. You can just see small tiny cars rolling along as slow as can be and can't help but laugh
Since many years I drive this part minimum 3 times each year to my holyday property at the Costa Blanca... ... After crossing shitty France Im always happy when crossing the boarder at La Jonquera and back ways allways depressed after leaving Spain and entering France... ... With its unable drivers...
userbrytje008 Bedankt. Ik heb 6600 kilometer gereden tot het zuidpuntje van Spanje en terug via west-Spanje en een stukje Portugal. Er komen nog veel meer video's :)
zoo dat is zeker netjes !! Die route wil ik ook graag rijden ik wil dan via malaga en sevilla terug en waarschijnlijk ook een stukje portugal ,, deze zomer ga ik naar zwitserland italie en dan zoveel mogelijk bergpassen rijden in een paar dagen en mijn grote droom de stelviopas in italie haha :)
theatisgr As an active trucker I can tell you there are a lot of European countries, where cars need not paying tool, and the motorways still have guards. Trucks are paying toll in the most European countries for a couple of years. But the guards were standard years before trucks had to pay toll. These guards have nothing to do with road toll. They are SAFETY standard all over Europe
@@jesperPLZ In Portugal you don't need to have a GPS if you go to an important place, like Braga, Porto, Lisbon or Faro. But if you have to go to Cascos de Rolha, well... I've gone to Spain and I can say to you that, in some places of the country, you must have a GPS. In Galicia, Asturias or in some places of Andalucia, if you don't have a GPS, well...
Diogo Rodrigues well I went to the Algarve back in 2012 and most intersections were just two roads in the middle of a cornfield without any signs. I can imagine that around Lisbon or Porto or some other big city it’ll be better but still lol
I like road-tripping and your videos are amazing. Thank you for sharing your road travels! I love the fact that the majority of drivers in Europe remain almost always to the right lane when they are not passing, in the US most drivers are idiots who like to hog the left lane when they are not passing and enjoy blocking traffic.
I had a problem once I was in Canada, I was lost on the road people slow down on the left lane and some speed of the right lane!! It could be mortal for drivers who are used to the European way to drive on highways!!!
Spanish Highways are perhaps the best in Europe, this is what explain the financial crisis in this country. It is so brand new that you can eat on it ! the fact is that they have A7 (free) where people can drive just near the AP 7 wich is not free (AP means "Autopista de Peaje") So, saying that we can understand why most of spanish don't take the AP
VINGAZOLE1 Aha, come to France to see the best highways in the world. There are service areas every 10 km (you can eat, sleep, refuel there). The road surface is perfect. It's just sad that the speed limit is 130 km / h, it could be unlimited like in Germany
***** It is a toll road, paid for by motorists. It is built for summer traffic, which is very heavy. This was filmed on a Sunday. Normally there are much more trucks.
***** Eight lanes is indeed a bit overkill. On the other hand, the tolls are very high (higher than in France, € 14.35 from La Jonquera to Granollers), so you can expect some investment in return :) I found AP-7 north of Barcelona to be in better condition than south of Barcelona to Valencia. Not that it's bad, but north of Barcelona is just excellent.
It might seem overkill to you but since AP-7 it's the only feasible route from Barcelona to France it holds a lot of traffic. Plus it serves Industrial zones that produce a lot of traffic in terms of trucks.
Lo triste es que la mayoría de catalanes seguro que hablamos el español mejor que vosotros... cuando aprendas tu propia lengua bien, entonces nos lo exiges a los demás jajajaj
