Awesome, I could watch this all day long

This freeway/country road as it is up north is both fast and scenic I love what CalDot did to it

I love this video! I'm from SoCal, and the 101 goes right through my hometown of Thousand Oaks, CA. Love the 101. And I love your great taste in music!

I'd love to take these drives with those songs playing on the radio -it would be like a dream come true. Awesome job as always.

enjoyed the ride with you far away from india you turned my dream in to reality thank you

I remember the Conejo grade well from my trip to Oxnard 2 years ago, it was a highlight of the trip!

Thanks Freeway Jim! Love the comments. My folks loved the Mama's and the Papas. I can listen to California Dreaming a million more times. Highway 101 is my favorite Herb Alpert instrumental song, perfect for driving, studying, anything. I cannot drive on highways like these, so I can do so vicariously with your videos. My favorite KZfaq Channel, along with Comrade Dobler's 1970 nfl films.

I'm using these videos as reference for our SoCal inspired Minecraft city build. I'm building out the highways and this is definitely giving me mad references for what the freeways look like at ground level. I've been to L.A. a few times and have been on these roads, but memory is nothing compared to seeing actual video you can start and stop. Thanks for posting this!

One thing I like about the freeways in the Los Angeles area is their consistency of naming them after the highway's destination or the area that the freeway occupies. There are the Ventura, Santa Monica, Riverside, Santa Ana, Pomona, San Diego, Harbor, Long Beach, Hollywood, Antelope Valley, San Gabriel River, Foothill, the original Pasadena Freeway, Artesia, etc. I know there are several that do not fit this criteria, but I think it is a great idea.

Born and raised in Ventura County and have traveled this stretch of road more times than I could possibly count!

Now it's time for me to re-drive US 101 end to end, again. It's been about a dozen years. I love this road.

You have excellent taste in music.

0:40 this right here! Perfect song for this cruise in Cali

Great video and music (for the most part). I have driven that 101 stretch one time. On my way home from Palm Springs after a night of partying. Um, I was on my way home to San Jose. That ended up being the longest drive I've ever driven. Never ended and got home at 10 pm. But it was very scenic I must admit.

as an armchair traveller from Australia i love watching driving videos of the los angeles area/s freeway/interstate system, there is something mesmerizing about so much traffic, great video keep them coming please.

Oh man, GREAT music start to finish... I think this was my 5th time watching it!

Wow! Los Angeles,Ca looks Beauitful! i hope i can go visit there some day i hope

Very awesome ride and this ride has made it's way onto my bucket list of freeways to ride! I love it! You have the coast, you have the mountains, you have it all- I want to one day ride the 101! Though, part of me knows I have been through the downtown LA parts of the 101 when I was there in 1990- I want to see the coast on this beautiful highway! Very awesome ride and a great soundtrack to go with it!

Amazing video, incredible as always freewayjim!!!!

Jim you've done it again this video is an instant classic.

Thank you for all the captions, and like the other people said, you have good taste in music!

Thanks at lots, Freewayjim! Fantastic vídeo! !

Herb Alpert's Route 101 - ohhh yessss...

Your playlists are interesting, usually music I wouldn't seek out but it really works here.

Your music taste is exactly like mine!

Great as always!

love the first song its amazing

Jim, fantastic!

R.I.P. Herb Alpert!!! I love that song too; it puts me in a zone while driving. That marine layer wouldn't break for NOTHING. I love seeing the variety of scenery along the route. Kudos.

always enjoy the rides and the tunes... be safe out there

Didn't you know that US Route 101 have the longest controlled access highway section in the United States Numbered Highway System? From Los Angeles to San Francisco for 434 miles. It's also a scenic highway too when you drove near the Pacific Ocean and the mountains of California. I'm glad AASHTO did that years ago.

Great video!!! I always look forward to Monday's (Yes, Monday's!!!!!!) to see your new videos

I watched this at work on my iPhone and some of my co workers got introduced to you channel😊

Thanks for letting us ride along Freeway Jim...Dale Bozzio too, nice.

Incredible!!

Thanks!

great video as always 👍

Love your highway!!

yay - Missing Persons - saw them in the Valley in like 1983. I feel like I know every square inch of this route. I spend a loooootttt of time in my car.

I always wonder how before the days of GPS people ever navigated these kinds of crazy freeway/interchange systems. Great video Jim!

Thanks, Jim, you really made my Monday morning with this ride! While I watched this, I was thinking about how US-101 (mostly the Ventura Freeway part) was such an integral part of my daily life before I moved to Florida and how much better my life is without having to deal with it's traffic. I was also surprised, shocked really, to hear Dale Bozzio's voice in one of your videos but, I would have expected you to have used "Walking In LA" instead of "Destination Unknown".

GOOD TRIP AND VERY EXPLANATORY TO KNOW WHERE YOU ARE!!!

Well done as always :)

Nice video man, really enjoyed seeing it, I recommend you take Route 1 from Santa Barbara to San Francisco, it's a nice route, greetings.

Alright first off great video as always. This video really made me home sick. I have been living in Huntsville Alabama for over 15 years now and haven't been back to California once since I moved away.You drove through my home town of Ventura on my birthday of June 14th...I think its time that I take a trip back out west and enjoy beautiful California.

Amazing video!! Just adicctive!!!

Verry oood trip :) Gretings!

AMAZING....my back yard🌞🌞🌞

Good run! It's a little bit of everything out there.

You MUST re-do this one day if you can when the weather is nicer. Doesn't do Santa Barbara justice. Oh and thank you so much for all of these videos. This is the best channel I have found in a very very long time.

Cool video & cool title

Ramp signals on this freeway I noticed

I forgot all about the song by missing persons thanks

Wow, just wow. I just drove this two weeks ago. There is hardly any trash on the road compared to the dump I just drove thru. I’m flabbergasted

VERY GOOD MUSIC!!!JIM

I haven't heard Vibeology in YEARS!!!

These kind of videos act as a therapy for me, they just relax my mind

3:40 is my exit for pizza in Hollywood. I miss my city. thx Jim.

I can't believe the first 101 miles of US Route 101 is all but a freeway. But that's not all. It's a scenic freeway in central to southern California for over 500 miles. However, there's a freeway gap in the streets of San Francisco to access the Golden Gate Bridge and I-80.

I enjoy every video you have, this is AWESOME. Are you planning on doing a video here in Houston soon? TX 99 (Grand Parkway) has a large portion completed. Still undeveloped but not for long.

I think the flock of lambs needs to move to Santa Barbara. Beautiful video as always.

another great video, too bad you went to Southern Cal in June which is called June Gloom down there as the marine layer is at it's peak.

I see many of these are native Angelenos, or are bands that got started in LA; I like how you try to choose music from people who are from the area you showcase in the video. :)

Great video! Driving anywhere this summer, Jim?

that car towards the end made me jump LOL. I thought it hit you. Good job

Hey, great work, Jim. A suggestion, for you... I know you put your song information in the video, but I think it would be neat if you put the title, artist and timestamp in the description so people can pull up a particular song they may of liked with the click of a button when you do these montages. :)

Great work! This section of US 101 is actually the freeway that I took for the most times during my college time (I went to UCSB and visited LA a lot). I noticed that when the video ends, you already passed downtown Santa Barbara. Did you take SR 117 and take a break in Isla Vista?

😎 California Dreaming 👍🖒

Do the entire Redwood Highway from the Golden Gate Bridge to Grants Pass, Oregon. (US 101 and US 199)

Does It Look Confusing Where The California State Route 1 Goes Because It Is Either On Rice Avenue Or Oxnard Boulevard

Stop putting me in a good mood with your good music and your chill highways. I want to stay miserable as I do my homework 😤

Parabéns!Sou fã de seus vídeos.

7% grade and no runaway ramps? Me being a bus driver I notice stuff like that.

May I ask, if your car is equipped with cruise control, how often do you use it?

Looks like you encountered the famous June Gloom

Southern California seems to be a surprisingly gloomy place in June! I wonder if it was sunny a few miles further inland...

Awesome video! When do you plan on visiting New Jersey again?

first,and great video my friend.

What about US-101 South in Los Angeles?

Why is the 1A 1B 1C 1D exits closed?

Did you know The I-405/ US 101 interchange is the most congested interchange in the United States? Also I've been wondering, why is there a I-110 and I-710 in L.A. but no I-310 or I-510?

Paula Abdul? Wasn't she married to Emilio Estevez for about six weeks? Songs I wish you could use: THEN CAME YOU by Dionne Warwick, BABY I NEED YOUR LOVIN by Johnny Rivers, LONG COOL WOMAN, by the Hollies, BANG A GONG by T Rex, TIME WON'T LET ME by the Outsiders, NICE TO BE WITH YOU by Gallery, I CAN SEE CLEARLY NOW by Johnny Nash, TOO LATE TO TURN BACK NOW by Cornelius Brothers, THE VOICE by Moody Blues, REACH OUT by the Four Tops, SUGAR SUGAR, by the Archies, TURN THE BEAT AROUND, by Vickie Sue Robinson, RIGHT BACK WHERE WE STARTED FROM, by Maxine Nightingale, IT DON'T COME EASY, by Ringo Starr, DRIVIN MY LIFE AWAY and I LOVE A RAINY NIGHT by Eddie Rabbit, SUNDOWN by Gordon Lightfoot, TRAGEDY by the Bee Gees.

The worlds busiest (east LA interchange)has so much traffic

Does anyone ever FIND Los Angeles?

I remember the days when there was a stoplight in the middle of 101 in Santa Barbara.

California Dreaming by The Mamas & The Papas was not a 1965 song. It was from 1966.

Love your videos but I don't see the purpose of putting the old view map with the updated map as they are 2 different views in terms of detail.

Great stuff, Jim. When you passed through Camarillo I naturally thought of the great Zappa tune, Camarillo Brillo, about a female patient from the State Mental Hospital there. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bMqZdtBl3ZnNgps.html And of course Ojai is where The Six Million Dollar Man and The Bionic Woman grew up. In fact the freeway speed limit was also their top speed. ;-)

We’re u live

I wish Freewayjim repeat the same video on a clear blue sky. Mr. Freewayjim for President.

was expecting "ventura highway" by america :/ but still good video :)

Alternative title: escape from Los Angeles

Where are u

I have an itching feeling for you to really show traffic on the 405. You just haven't experienced LA with traffic on the 405.

1:55 I remember how there was no homeless people on the overpasses! It was already happening but not as bad as now! Today homeless people everywhere thanks to these corrupt politicians destroying what once a California dream!

It looks really polluted, nice city though.

thanks 0 , I think it is the first place 0 0 to

"Heart full of soul" Yardbirds original version is much better.
