fantastic video and fantastic music

This makes me want to move to Atlanta even more. I've been loving Atlanta since I was a kid. And I'm 16. I love Atlanta more than most of the people that live there, and I live 3 hours away. People will never understand what it is about this city that I love.

Atlanta is definitely one of the greatest cities in the world! Going through these freeways, I experience a feeling of connection to the past trade and rail routes which became these freeways, a feeling of a modern South, and realize how much I want to return one day for retirement long down the road. I sleep better at night seeing the home I will one day return to Freewayjim! I have everything to thank you for on that!

Thanks, I am originally from NH but have lived in Atlanta since 1977.

I love this highway to the airport! Cool tune!

Great video! I like the nice sights of the skyscrapers and this is an excellent video! I really enjoyed, thanks for posting.

thanks for all your ATL videos man. I moved away a few years ago so its nice to see it again. Takes me back!

My mom works at the airport so I frequent it quite often, the 5th runway tunnel is most definitely a blast to drive through!!!

On my recent (August 1-3, 2014) trip to my soon-to-be-new home in middle Georgia, I had the pleasure to retrace your video steps throughout metro Atlanta. It was a great ride, one I hope to repeat many more times.

Hey Jim, thanks for doing this! I'm a truck driver from California and as you may know, trucks aren't allowed inside the I-285 loop unless making local deliveries. I've been to the Atlanta area loads of times but never inside the Perimeter. Your videos give me a good look at downtown Atlanta that I may never see otherwise. You rock!

So this is where the intro footage came from 😂 great video man!

That view of Midtown and then Downtown, driving southbound along I-75 & I-85 is easily one of the best skyline views along any freeway in America. Love it! Did you film this on a Sunday night, 'cause I certainly experienced more traffic when I drove this at night! And oh man, that drive thru the tunnel is great. It looks better at night, when it's all lit up. Favorited!

I love your videos because they remind me of the great times I had in the ATL! Hope to get down there again real soon!

Perfect timing with the music and runway tunnel approach. Keep up the good work Jim!

Great work Jim..

Great video loved the runway part and the music choice was great also.

I love your vids!! Been wanting to visit ATL for the longest...this kinda makes me feel like I'm there. Keep posting!

Great video! 2:02-2:05 is the perfect entrance into the city. It's quite fascinating approaching the city from 85 North.

That was nice. I miss Atlanta. Towards the end you were flying...driving like an Atlantian...teehee.

Hello Jim My name is Kathy I worked for Husky Systems at the time Jasper Construction Company Sub contracted through our company In order to fabricate parts for the bridge and enter walls in the United States Expressway system At that time I was the number one die setter press brake operator and of course I punchd sheard band sawed my way through hundreds of miles of structural steel I even had to do a one inch offset with a 1 inch square die That consisted of having to hit the blockout bracket twice instead of the normal one hit that I would have gotten with a offset die My boss Oliver Chapman at the time show me the blueprint and asked me how I was going to do this I said its easy I am going to hit the first brake on a stop then flip it and bump the second brake on bottom of the 1 inch square die :-) Double work but I got her done lol!

You're the king of highway vids!!!

That was the best time to film in what is the greatest city in my opinion! It's also a time when I'm winding down yet working late for the next day!

My cousin and first girlfriend both live in the Atlanta area, and when I see these videos of your rides in a city I refer to as "The New York City of the South" they are awesome.

Cool video! I love Atlanta!

Thank you!

Thank you very much!

Atlanta makes me think of all of the lights it's so beautiful......I live down here

Nice! I visited Atlanta last week! What I did was crazy (from Tampa and back, no hotel only rest area in Gainesville on the way back, I arrived at Atlanta close to 8pm on Friday and entered some parts of Midtown and Buckhead the city looks really nice in the nights.

That was actually entertaining. The music went well with the video.

Another fantastic vid' added to my playlist FreewayJim.

Btw I wanted to say that you made me a fan of Zebra on your old film of westbound 20 from ATL.

Atlanta is the most Gorgeous city u can go too Its ATL baby!

I'm not sure why you thought Jim was implying that "Buckhead" within Atlanta was somehow an incorporated city. Atlanta locals refer to that area as "Buckhead"...same thing with how local residents in San Francisco refer to northwestern San Francisco as "Richmond" or the "Richmond District", even though there's an actual city, located 15 miles northeast of San Francisco, with the exact same name.

@AxmKap That is the MARTA North line (Rapid transit), same thing at 1:30.

Freewayjim - you've obviously been all over the country. What do you like about Atlanta and calling it home? It seems like a city worth visiting for sure.

Hotlanta! I really loved this video, Jim. I've always wanted to see what the 285 runway tunnels look like at night. I predict that this will be your next 100K+ views video.

Sorry bud, but I think you are the only one confused by this. The description in the video clearly says this is of Atlanta freeways, beginning from the neighborhood of Buckhead. Nowhere does it say "Buckhead, GA" as if referring to a city 70 miles away. I think yelling at the person who posted this was completely uncalled for. You could have simply added a comment that there is also a town of Buckhead, and it would have been educational, not rude.

love these even more at night

I am well aware of that. BUCKHEAD in Atlanta is a community not an incorporated city. Locals simply refer to the area as "Buckhead" so while YOU perceive it as I'm calling a city I'm simply using local terminology. Sorry that wasn't good enough for you.

I was living for 9 years I love atl

@specialkvi Talk about perfec timing. They even captured the Marta train passing over the freeway at 1:28 to 1:31. Now that really takes some expert timing! LOL

This is cool!!! Love it.

great video!!!!!

i love going down that path to the airport :) brings back memories! #goATL

I like th music on the other video 3 states in 6 minutes.. Great Video..

Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson Airport is THE busiest airport in the world, look it up.

Awesome video. Atlanta is the greatest city ever.

Very good !!!!! Jim do a video of the Atl airport, so we can get a very good look of the inside the airport......

This music is good for the soul.

I live in Atlanta. This was 11 years ago (a little before I moved here).So many new high-rises went up in Midtown since this was shot. You wouldn't recognize it anymore. Plus the traffic is worse XD

@CosmoPhotography Thanks! and I hope you are right! The tunnel is so cool at night, the camera did not do it proper justice.

Atlanta looks fun. only been to airport then driven north. never really experienced the city.

This is the perfect northern VA night song for the freeways

@ScrewdUPClickV2 The DC is definitely a cool road 12-16 lanes the whole way.

You are the man!!!!

So.....how about some history lessons on the old I-85 in Mid-town ATL? I would gladly appreciate some info on the remains of that section of interstate, thanks!

depends on where you're coming from, where you're headed, and what time you're traveling. from south of the airport on I-85 to midtown can take anywhere from 20 minutes to an hour or more depending on traffic

I went to turner field this past July for a braves vs Nationals game in a suite, and I wore a Bryce Harper shirt

Thank you for watching, glad you enjoyed it!

Atlanta is the best city in the USA

It's a great city, plain & simple!

@FreewayAndrew Thanks, it's pretty impressive in the daylight.

Thanks for the video!

Thanks for watching! I went to California for the first time this past June and have been posting videos from there, loved the Golden State!

Well said!

Best music and best time for it and if there was a video version of it, I could imagine that it would be in a club on a Friday night and everybody having a good time just dancing, and you just sitting on the side having a few drinks then seeing your crush and ask him and he says yes and you join in the crowd.

Great video. The tunnel was somewhat suprising to appear.

At 1:43 this is where you film your old intro was

@tarik1the1 yes, I believe it is, they are currently building a new International terminal.

a young girl 3 years ago went down one of these freeways in Atlanta and she disappeared never to be seen again neither her car or her!

@b0gdanB Yes, to use the HOV lane (far left) you have to have 2 or more people in your vehicle (or be on a motorcycle) or you can and will get a ticket.

pretty neat video too!

Savannah is a nice town but to each his own, I rather have the Big City amenities that Atlanta provides.

Can you do a video with house music like this riding through midtown/buckhead at night? like up down peachtree?

Just noticed you hit the Daily Double on the Connector. All the lights!

Jim thanks for showing my city in all it's splendor. are you from the ATL?

@casmatori Thank you!

@VHM072010 Thanks, I have other videos posted that show the tunnel in the daylight.

at 4:00 the I-85 south to Columbus 👍👍 is where i was born, raised, and still live.

It's not a song, it's an Apple Loop called Chelsea Loft, there is a full version of it here on YT.

Both! it's the busiest airport in the WORLD!

awesome ride..thanks

@FreewayBrent Thanks, yes we shot this last Sunday night (Mem day weekend).

@2004JETTA Thank you!

Love it now!!!!!

u should do a video AT NIGHT with u starting on peachtree st down atlanta ending at lenox mall. i always wanted to see what it looked like at night time

I'm thankful the 5 the runway tunnell keeps the planes from almost touching your vehicle,before that I was certain the planes were going to use my truck roof to land on ,they are that close

very good !!!!!

it's the only runway in the united states that has a highway passing beneath it

My son Tywon has been on I-75 thourgh Atlanta And I-20 In Agusta

Oh yes, by far! there is at least one freeway clogged in LA at any given point in time, ATL is relatively free flowing aside from construction and rush hour.

@Curtains1337 You're welcome! Thanks for watching.

Thank you Sir :-)

As one who will very likely be moving to Atlanta in 10 years, how long does this commute normally take?

@MrDj14696 This is a very easy city to get around, you would adapt in no time, the only problem is the volume of traffic but the roads are good, and generally well marked.

0:25 This feeling by physics

Yes, I live in the metro area.

@Decutta Thank you!

pretty sweet vid! :)

@Freewayjim Question, are the HOV lanes on I-85 and other freeways in Atlanta open access? I only see like 2 broken white lines seperating from main traffic so I'm kind of curious.
