The Bay Bridge at night is awesome! I have to say it is awesome to see lit up at night! Very nice ride, finally took the time to see it! Awesome ride! Always enjoy seeing the San Francisco area- as it is on my bucket list of highways to explore!

[@Freewayjim]

[@ejscott9594]

The best part of the trip is at 5:32 with the awesome entrance to the new bridge. This makes me want to go to SF more.

Nothing compares to driving the new Bay Bridge at night, some of the best LED displays in the nation!

I love ALL of your musical choices, for ALL of the videos you post!!

[@Freewayjim]

Thank you very much for that!

[@EricMoore-dx6sx]

Do you choose the music? I had an image of you in my head on the 1st several videos I watched, but it kept/keeps changing the more I watch your videos & hear the accompanying music.

[@Freewayjim]

Yes, I choose all the music, sometimes it comes to me quickly, others it can take a couple hours of trying different songs to see what I feel "fits" with the footage.

[@kristenpeterson1618]

Great video and great song. Your videos are absolutely amazing.

[@Freewayjim]

[@josegloriagarcia]

nice ride jim... The bay bridge is really cool at night, I only had the chance to pass through in the day time and it is awesome, can imagine how cool it is during the night.

[@Freewayjim]

+Jose Garcia Thanks Jose, it's really something at night, like driving into a cathedral.

[@luvcarsgay]

The LED lighting used on the new span of the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge is terrific, particularly with the contrasting darkened old span next to it. Wonderful, as always.

[@Freewayjim]

+luvcarsgay Thank you!

[@robin42343]

I love seeing the new section of the Bay Bridge at night! Beautiful! I have not been on it. I do miss the old neon signs they used to have in the 1950s and '60s as you get off the bridge to enter the City. The only one left seems to be the Coca Cola sign. Thanks for the video!

The New version of the bridge is really meant for the night. These videos take me away from my daily problems. For a few minutes as you entered Frisco I was thinking of going clubbing , then I remembered its 8:25 AM and I'm approaching 60

[@Freewayjim]

+Edward Kollin LOL, thanks, I'll be 50 soon so I know what you mean, thanks for watching and the comment.

Thanks for an amazing ride. The night time ride alongs always have a different, more engrossing view, with all the lights.

[@Freewayjim]

[@cldrules]

This is very soothing, excellent concept. I think I could get into freeway ride-along videos. Hell, driving in itself is quite soothing, with some good music blaring.

While everyone here in europe only focusses on the iconic Golden Gate, the Bay Bridge is surely able to compete with it 'freewaywise'. The entrances are amazing and the bridge itself even more.

[@GG-xw2nb]

Oops! 4:01

[@FreewayBrent]

Brilliant! Damn, that camcorder really shines brightly, once put into night mode. I've always said driving the new bridge at night is akin to driving through a cathedral of sorts. On a side note, how come I can't get the free-flow driving conditions to appear on my daily drives around here, that you got in this video? lol. Fantastic work, my friend.

[@Freewayjim]

+FreewayBrent Thank you, much appreciated. Cathedral is the perfect comparison IMO, there's nothing quite like driving through this at night....I know how bad the traffic can usually be around there, sometimes it's good to be lucky.

[@derrickw3021]

I have rode and even drove on these freeways several times since I am a native but come back every year on vacation since I moved . San Francisco isn't all that glamerous and has some areas notorious for crime , like Bayview / Hunter's Point , Visitacion Valley , The Tenderloin , Inner Mission & Western Addition / Fillmore . A home in a good neighborhood you have to shell out over $ 1,000,000 for and rent is sky high crazy !

[@aztecrobowalk]

some homes are going for $1 million even in the Bayview/Hunters point now. It's one of the least gentrified parts of the city. There's a bunch of industrial stuff, it's home to a bunch of projects, there are regular shootings, etc...but even there people are paying way over asking price. It's crazy

[@willcampbell8997]

About $120,000/yr. is considered low income in San Francisco, LOW! Most anywhere else, that would be middle-class. This is one of the contributing factors in San Francisco's chaotic homeless problem (along with rampant drug use).

[@thomasmurphy3021]

that video was very fast at night around the bay area. what is the next video in your trip going to be next? comment me back.

[@Freewayjim]

+Thomas Murphy There are 4 more from the Bay Area, next Monday we'll tool around Oakland a little then cross the bridge in daylight to SF.

[@sams6484]

nice video btw

[@TheCloakedTiger]

The 1965 map is interesting... It has I-80 going along the stub of where US-101 is today and then I-480 going along what I think is CA-1 today... Oh! And I should mention: That old Coca Cola sign? Yeah... Its gone now... Just like the old 76 tower that was near the I-80 / 480 interchange...

[@samsmith3384]

My dad says its way too expensive is there another bridge that's cheaper than the I-480???

[@Freewayjim]

+Sam Smith There is no I-480 and $4-6 is very reasonable to cross a major bridge, it's $13-15 in NYC, you have the world's information at your fingertips, feel free to find another way.

They were there. I thought I may have seen someone about a second later facing the building as if he is relieving himself. Yeah, San Francisco's homelessness is really bad, so bad in fact that the city has to invest in "fecal clean-up" services. I can only shudder to think about a possible dysentery outbreak.
