1:30 I love how both of them are not in the lanes they should be in. THIS is why Boston is the worst place to drive! Their kids probably grew up to be more idiot drivers. 🤦🏻‍♂️

It looks like they already converted to metric there inadvertently. The sign says max 30, doesnt specify units, and it looks like theyre doing no more than 30 km/h to me.

Love this clip so much I had to come back to it. 1980's = Boston traffic sucks 1990's = still sucks 2000's (post Big Dig, single worst state boondoggle in US history) = sucks even more 2010, 2020... = yep, you guessed it

1:29 just take the fucking exit and figure it out lol What a douche. Either that or they knew the lane was ending but it was faster and were trying to cut traffic. Either way: douche.

@@Rocklegend953The full cost was around $24 billion, after having originally been pitched, back in the 80s, as more like a $2 billion project. Maybe Boston is nicer for tourists. It definitely got cleaner. But, this was at the cost of pushing working class Bostonians out of the city, because it became utterly unaffordable. I wonder what it will look like 20 years from now, when academia and biotech have been cut down to size. The city has been unfriendly to any other business. What an embarrassment it was a few years ago, when GE reversed their decision to move their HQ to Boston, or the dumb move to bid for the Olympics.

Earlier today, some guy drove past me in a 1985 Trans Am. It stuck out amongst the crowd of cars that were all from at least the 2010 area, and it was weird to think that you'd see cars that looked like that all the time. Watching this just makes me feel that same feeling, but even stronger. It's cool in that weird sort of way, it really feels like you're traveling through time.
