Timelapse Drive - US Route 50 Nevada "Loneliest Highway" 

and Roadhouse Blues

Riders on the storm. There is a killer on the road

And Modest Mouse

I’ve done it several times in my E89 Z4. Doesn’t matter which song over 110mph. Can’t hear a thing. Just see the red mist.

Hell no, the loud engine roar irritates after a while

I've been out by Denio, there is NOTHING there. I also blew thru Frenchglen without slowing down, doing about 100. It's fun.

I used to live in Bridgeport, California and traveled a few times to Boise, Idaho for training. We took the road up to Yerington, to I-80, Winnemucca, Burns Junction, Jordan Valley and finally into the Snake River Valley. It was a long haul and we started well before sunrise, this mostly in the winter when we could take a break from the job and travel to training. I'm retired from the U.S. Forest Service and the training at the National Interagency Fire Center in Boise was among the best available. Boise was far warmer than Bridgeport and it was nice to experience that in the middle of the winter. From McDermitt to Burns Junction and through Jordan Valley is wonderfully remote and I always enjoyed the trips. Another interesting trip is to drive from Cedarville, California to Nevada State Route 140. This takes you on dirt roads through the Sheldon National Wildlife Refuge. I'm a bit of a connoisseur of remote country. I lived in two towns of less than 700 people for many years, Bridgeport, California and Magdalena, New Mexico. Both were on the edge of some remote country even though both were located on U.S. Highways. My definition of a remote place to live (by lower 48 state standards) means you are more than 10-20 miles from a place where you can buy gas, fresh milk, eggs, lettuce, bread, drop your elementary school kids at a bus stop and pick up and drop off mail. The 10-20 miles is dependent on what type of road provides access to this place, be it paved, gravel, dirt and whose road it is, state, county, Forest Service, Bureau of Land Management, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service or National Park Service maintained. Often in these remote places your high school aged kids have to stay at a boarding school, which local school districts in remote areas run. My 1st wife taught at one of these.

I want to build a fantastic house here coz am fed up with my country. I want a silent and lonely environment. This place looks very good for me...Lots of Love from pakistan to the whole UNITED STATES.

@@pyrusrex2882 This road leads to INFINITY...

Not if you're doing 274mph in a Koenigsegg

+guillermo prole I'd love to max out any car on this road but that;s my main fear. Conking out in the dead middle of the route

I bet theres a hermit or 2 around the middle of this long section that has an old gas station at 2x the regular price for those in need.

And imagine a trip on a motorcycle through here when you don't have a gas gauge, just have to estimate how many miles to empty.

ElHugger imagine your car or truck brock down and you had no signal had to call a tow truck rule1 bring extra fuel if your gonna go in the desert

Ouch!

Gary Howe Wales and Scotland you can. The mountain ranges are awesome. But I agree there's way more of this amazing scenery in the US.

SteelRazorBlade // AdamSRB Haven't driven in Scotland but have driven through North Wales and through Ireland which has great scenery and is really peaceful at places.

Try Canada

Have you been to the USA yet? It is beautiful!

England is a beautiful country. I'd LOVE to live there...

You caught that too

How the hell did you find that out? I couldn't notice it

Did you do it? This lamb has been on every mile of US 50 from Ocean City to Columbus. The worst part of that chunk is from US 219 in Garrett County to I-79 in Clarksburg. Slow, lots of sharp curves, steep hills, etc.

Now? Lol

So did u do it?

5:05 speed limit 70 (slow it down to see)

Drove it several times. Wasn’t wasting no time. Never saw a cop. Did see 130 though.

HAHA never thought of it that way :)

After watching a BUNCH of Western movies, and just hearing about the Pony Express station guy that was murdered in cold blood, all the horses stolen, it brings the reality of the pioneer's life in to focus. Besides that, I can't stand to eat dead animals or drink coffee and liquor, so I might go really really hungry. One guy wrote that he ate wolf soup. Yuck.

No wonder I couldn't react in time at the corners. Thanks.

And then ur just stuck there and nobody else is out there to help you

Yeah but does it have wide open plains like this, or is it mostly trees and mountains? The wide open, empty spaces are a big part of what make it feel so lonely. It's not just about numbers of people. It is also the psychological effect of having an unimpeded view to the horizon.

Find an old mine shaft quarter stick of dynamite it's gone forever just saying Iv never done it

The horror, the horror.

eduardo ramirez breaks down during the night

You're about the only one that does mate !

I liked it. What was it?

So did I, and I'm picky. Though I will admit that this is the only soundtrack you've used that I liked.

Hey, thank you very much for your incredible feedback. I'd recommend you take a look at Interstate Kyle - I love his videos. ru-vid.com/show-UC8Me_BMEW1k36Ap4xqNTapQ

I've actually started watching his videos in the last couple days, they are also very good. I also appreciated seeing a glimpse Sand Mountain out past Fallon, that would be a fun place to take my Banshee. I've recently come to love Nevada and its isolation and old ghost towns out in the middle of nowhere. I've had a Nevada road trip on my mind for a while now, where I would explore all the little used and forgotten state routes that crisscross the state. The climate in SW Idaho (my home) isn't much different, but Nevada is just more beautiful. This video kinda ignited that little fire in me, I've seen it many times.

There is no speed limit there when I grew up there we drove as fast as we want to do fuck the police

Royal Allred people who say that are idiots

The point of a speed limit is this.......... 45 MPH is 237,600 feet per hour or 66 feet per second. 60 MPH is 316,800 feet per hour or 88 feet per second. 75 MPH is 396,000 feet per hour or 110 feet per second. Now regardless of the possibility that someone might be coming in the opposite direction in a larger, heavier, sturdier vehicle would you rather lose control of your vehicle at 66 feet per second or 110 feet per second? In some stretches of this road you could regain control at 66 feet per second. In other stretches you couldn't. In many stretches of this road you can't do jack to stay on the road at 110 feet per second if you lose control for even 1 second. Now imagine that in some areas of this road you wouldn't see another human being for 10 - 20 minutes at a time during the daylight hours and you wouldn't see another human for hours at a time during the overnight hours. Even if the high beams on your vehicle work and you signal morse code distress calls to anyone that might be able to see your headlights, at 1AM the only vehicles that WOULD see your lights would be 31,000 feet up traveling at 500 MPH. By the time anyone acknowledges that you ran off the road, you (or someone else in your party) could be "hurtin' big time" for a LONG TIME into the future.

@@alexandra.willitts6988 you're no fun

Pill Cosby what did you smoke? Pills? What pills did you take P I L L cosby?

I like when viewers suggest better music, rather than grizzle about the royalty free piece I put with this. Thank you.

Seriously ? I wish I could take credit for filming it. It now features as bonus footage in a DVD I produce. Looks good in HD on a big screen.

I bet you were thinking about the one with a McLaren P1, with the UK plate P1 OOV, shot at night.

The Mute button is your friend.

Fuck no. I've driven through parts of Indiana on the expressway at night...nothing to light the night...would sure as hell never go on a stretch like the one you went on at night without knowing the terrain. Ponds and ditches can appear and you'd never know it until you are in them. No Thank You.

Did you ever go?

The wide open, empty spaces are a big part of what make it feel so lonely. It's not just about numbers of people. It is also the psychological effect of having an unimpeded view to the horizon. You do not get the full effect of the vast amount of flat space that is visible to the eye all at once from watching a video. Plus, some days are busier than others. The owner of this channel said in another comment that this was shot before Christmas, so this is showing holiday traffic. I once drove this road and at one stretch I didn't see another vehicle for 53 minutes.

Thanks for reminding me how much I've aged...

@@ejvideos07 your welcome

+GregoCatal so what's the speed limit there?

***** well that sucks, doing 75 over 3000 miles will kinda take a really goddamn long time

***** buuut there is no traffic so what are you gonna eyeball xD

Radar Detectors ARE NOT banned in California so stop the disinformation! They are ONLY unlawful in VA, D.C. and on military bases. Nevada HP loves their Ka band , so if you've got a great long range detector like a segged Redline, you're good to go out there.

Mostly 70 mph. (110 km/h)

+Aidan Cremin Just did this drive last month and saw the same cop pull over two different vehicles at two different times.
