The US President's $2,614 Per Minute Transport System 

Actually, each of the cars carries a single piece of the President's body, and he is reassembled at the destination.

Plot twist: the president is actually on a motorcycle and all the other cars are props

[[motorcade gets under attacked]] president with a grenade launcher: im gonna do what is called a pro gamer move

for a country that historically doesnt like paying alot of taxes. this sounds very expensive

The drivers window isn't used for tolls, it's used for McDonald's drive thru.

Our prime minister goes to parliament by bicycle, strange world we live in.

"Mr President, a nuke has been launched against us." Alright np, just move to the black truck

You know what would also be interesting? A) A comparison of JFKs motorcade security when he was assassinated vs today’s security, and what specific if changes were made to ensure that would never happen again B) a breakdown of the logistical (and apparently crazy expensive) nightmare of the Presidents security detail when they go golfing. I’ve heard how challenging that is because of the very nature of golf courses being completely wide open spaces.

"These two limos are identical. They even have the same license plate." *bombs both limos*

Now we know which RU-vidr is going to get a visit from the Secret Service

This is how my Amazon prime package gets delivered

For this cost, I think the president should consider making most meetings an email

Plot twist: The President is in the crowd watching his motorcade drive past

As someone who has lived in DC and now NY, you left out that the Secret Service will also weld shut every manhole cover and blue mailbox along the travel route. They also will place snipers on numerous buildings along the route. The window going down on the driver side of the limo isn't really for tolls. That was based on an anecdote a former driver said when they drove through a very rural area and had to pay a few cents for a toll booth. The real reason is so the driver can communicate and pass tangible items between himself and the secret service agents when they are walking alongside the limo. Other facts are the limo's tires (which are lined with kevlar) are filled with a gel-like substance (instead of air) so if shot, they don't blow out. Also, the rims are extended inside the tires so they can drive at highway speeds for several miles if a tire loses pressure.

Plot twist: the president dosent go and just uses a stunt double while he sleeps in

*Aussie State head giving interview to media* Common citizen: heya mate can ye get off me porch? PM: sure thing, *shows thumbs up*

When your overprotective mom becomes a billionaire

That's nice of them to atleast pay the tolls. That'll knock off some of that 350 million dollar budget.

The real question is, do you get a safe driver policy discount with an ambulance and counter-assault team following you?

I worked the daytona 500 when Trump came out, the secret service was heavy out there. My favorite thing from that experience was talking to a dude all kitted up with a vest that said secret service and I was like hey man whats so secret if its plastered on your chest xD

Netherlands here. Our prime minister regularly rides a bicycle to work. There is no "cycle-cade" either, no bicycles jamming the airwaves, or ones that are kitted out with grenade launchers or nuclear and biohazard protection.

Bro honestly just casually roll out in a Honda Accord with tinted windows. I doubt anyone's gonna notice

Its neat to see it go by in person, it passes way faster than youd think it could, especially in dense city traffic...incredible really.

"Can respond to nuclear attacks on the motorcade" Last time I checked, there weren't nuke proof vehicles yet

Motorcade is just a decoy. President actually rides in a beige Toyota Camry

So whenever they stop to get McDonalds, do both limos have to order the exact same meal?

Apparently, with the Norwegian tax rates, my personal taxes and my companies taxes combined, in one year, will keep Air Force 1 flying for about 14 minutes. That's insane.

Plot twist: The President just uses a teleporter from Star Trek. The motorcades, marine one and air force one are all just for show.

Plot twist: the President drives the lead car

the driver side window can go down to pay tolls? blocking off a whole highway to secure one continuous flow but damn you gotta pay the toll, driver!

"Travel costs 340 million per year, which is a steep cost" (Looks at 600 billion+ military budget) Yeah... right...

"This ambulance comes from the local fire department" *Hold up...what?*

I feel that I just got added to a CIA watchlist

Plot twist: The president walks while everyone’s focused on the brigade.

So the cars have anti tank weaponry, bulletproof think windows, modified truck bed, an entire escort, A smoke bomb spread turret, Mobile Gun Trucks, Tracking vehicle’s, radio jammers but not an EZ pass?

“Pump action shotguns” Shows a break barrel sawed off.

You would think that of all people, the President of the United States would have an EZPass

Plot twist - the president secretly travelled by metro wearing a wig and a fake beard.

meanwhile the dutch prime minister goes to work on a bicycle

It's a shame channels that post shit content get way more subs than you. This is what I call quality

Imagine how the most powerful person in Denmark (the prime minister) can be seen riding his bicycle through town sometimes 😆😆😆

Tax payers: could you spend more money on infrastructure? Government: planes go brrrrr

Meanwhile, the Dutch Prime Minister goes to work by bike.

Now I wanna see a Buzzfeed $250 dollar flight vs $250000 flight!

"The fastest" isn't the same with "the most efficient".

Plot twist: president is there to protect his security detail by attracting all the attention on him.

I think the cheapest way to travel and the most secure is traveling alone on a Toyota Corolla year 2000 wearing old jeans and a smelly t-shirt. No one would believe he is the president even if he try to tell LOL

Meanwhile the president of the netherlands arrives by bike

The nostalgia of my first Wendover video makes this my favorite. I love all your videos but this started my journey learning from you.

"this car is the roadrunner" doesn't look like a plymouth roadrunner to me

5:38 "... Is a generic Ambulance." PLOT TWIST, IT'S ACTUALLY A DISGUISE FOR A M1A2 ABRAMS

Plot twist: The president is a transformer and he is one of the cars in the motorcade

I once saw an interesting thing happen to a presidential motorcade. After the regular civilian traffic resumed behind it, a woman pulled out of a gas station and accidentally hit another civilian car. All of a sudden all traffic stopped and it was clear these were not all civilian cars, they were secretly still part of the motorcade. The woman's vehicle was instantly surrounded by about a dozen or more "civilian" cars with full tactical police getting out with automatic weapons. Then a bunch of plain-clothes people who looked like spectators standing on the street were on walkie talkies and it was clear even many of the plain-clothes public "spectators" were actually part of it as well. Once they realised this was just an honest traffic accident and not an attempt on the president they sped off to remerge with the traffic following the motorcade. Poor woman, it's bad enough getting in a traffic accident, but to then have your car instantly surrounded by police with automatic weapons suspecting your trying to assassinate the president. Eventually they let her go but I'm sure she had quite a story to tell her friends later that day. So yea, there's more to presidential motorcades than what's in this video.

They could literally take the president in a regular car and nobody would know wtf.

Meanwhile I've seen one of Sweden's prime minister arriving in a Volvo and selling hot dogs at his son's soccer tournament

Imagine when you could see the president just walking down the street, in about 1820.

I think I saw the motorcade once when I was driving down to Virginia. It was on the opposite side of the highway, and I saw a bunch of police motorcycles and black SUVs with their sirens.

I keep coming back to this video because I love the logistics involved

I know this is off topic, but when Obama visted Kenya, some parents named their new borns "Airforce One".

Imagine being at your toll booth then a whole motorcade just pulled up to your window

I've seen this 3 times and it never gets old.

I was on protection detail for the Sec Def- There are so many things folks will never know and it is all flippin awesome

A logistical nightmare parade of highly advanced and secured motorcade designed to transport the president beaten by some toll gates

Plot twist: The president actually just takes the subway

"pump-action shotguns" *shows a double barrel break-action shotgun*

Love your videos! I'm learning a lot from it! 😍

President: Can I go get some ice cream Secret Service: K let me prepare *calls in 2 armored limos, 50 machine gun humvees and 100 motorcycles

You lost me at when you said "The driver window opens, so they can pay tolls" lmao.

I will say. My father who has been in Traffic for 25 years for the Police Force. Has done many presidential motorcades. Whenever the President or some Head of State was in town. He was Lead Car, Tail Car, Route Car, Wing Cars and drove the Secret Service Agents around. A couple of times issued in re-routes when shit kind of just popped up. Nothing bad. Just a pesky train deciding to go through the route. When it was not scheduled or major accident happening before the Route Car drives up. Yeah. He did it all. And he loved it. And yes he has meant Bush Jr, Obama, and Trump. Plus several heads of states and pretty much every branch of the military's top brace. And as much as you are giving a nice overview of what goes into an escort. There is so much more and a lot of it is not public knowledge. Though they make no secrets about it. Just do not talk about it.

Thank you, this is very useful information

Does no one else wonder how much time this guy take researching his videos? I'm pretty sure he spends more time on these videos than Trump does on his economic policy lol

I’m surprised the motorcade has to pay tolls

usa: all that stuff switzerland: the president arrives in a mercedes a class alone

this is so well done!!

In France, our former president used a scooter to cheat on his girlfriend, sneaking out of the Elysee at night

3 million people have been added to the FBI and CIA wanted list

This gets recommend to me every month and I still watch it every time lol

This is very interesting never really thought too much into this incredible

My tax contribution per year keeps Air Force 1 in the air for 10 seconds.

"So they can pay tolls" 😂😂😂 yea right

Thank your for this very useful information

A lot of people don't know this, but tanks also have windows that roll down so they can pay tolls as they travel.

Plot twist: the president has already arrived to his destination.

@2:51, The presidents car needs to pay Tolls? LOL

Can't wait for the next production.....👂

Meanwhile, prime minister of New Zealand either drive a standard car or catch a public transport to work.

Netherlands: OuR pReSiDeNt GoEs To HiS wOrK *oN hIs BiKe*

*video title* “How to perfectly plan a attack on the us president motorcade”

Plot twist: President is the guy who is collecting toll taxes😂

Great video. You forgot to calculate the MX costs along with additional flying of marine one. Pilots need to maintain currency. Training flights lead to higher flight hours with MX costs.

You should do one on how the Queen travels.

Plot twist: the president is holding a sharpness 5 diamond sword.

Imagine that the NYPD don't consider the cost of the motorcade to the UN "negligable"

Another very interesting video package.☮️

Imagine President want to buy McFlurry via drive-thru

Doesn't one of the secret service cars have a huge fucking machine gun on the top they can pull out to spray people down?

Thanks!

Wow Tnx brother good

Plot twist: The president is disguised as a sniper assassin, waiting on a rooftop to assassinate himself

My dad is a cop in Australia, and he was on duty one day when George W Bush was visiting Sydney. He was apparently told by the secret service that he had to face away from the motorcade, and that if he even turned around to look he would be shot.
