There needs to be a passenger train between these cities.

💯

[@alfredgalan1912]

Yup, to boost up the crime👍

[@japanamericacar427]

There is plans to bring a train between las and la back, it was a thing in the 80s but when amtrak had budget cuts it was cut, its going to be back by 2035, probably earlier as california is pishing for it and we put lots of money into train projects. Also broghtline west is doing the same route with a high speed train, no word on when that will be built but would be an incredibly useful project

[@japanamericacar427]

@@alfredgalan1912 what do you mean by this, trains are a net good economically, take cars off the road and transport more people, who will have to stay the night atleast in one the 2 citys, eat, gamble, do business, ect

[@alfredgalan1912]

@@japanamericacar427 what do I mean, I mean the excetera. There is enough crime and violence, now you want to give them or you a means to add to that. Keeping it real 💯

This is probably my favorite stretch of road I’ve ever driven on. I just love the way the beautiful desert landscape contrasts with my every day environment on the east coast. It feels like exploring another world. I have been lucky and have never experienced super bad traffic. I have heard horror stories though.

[@VirgoDoll]

Yeah you are lucky i left my house six hours early and we missed our cruise😭😭it was a Sunday on a holiday weekend

[@VirgoDoll]

That is part of the reason why i moved to Vegas...i visited once was amazed by the desert scenery went home to NYC where i lived all my life and i started planning my move... Been living out here for a year and the drives are still so surreal

[@57ovalragtop]

Anytime you travel this route, take this advice from a Vegas native, stop at Apollos in Victorville for the best burgers ever !!!!!!

[@Grgaforniateezy]

I leave Sunday am but I’m on the road before sun up. Totally accurate video though

[@mikelmart]

Failed to mention the 115° temperatures, Baker has a thermometer that goes up to 120 that you can see from the I15.

[@GoHARD99]

Have driven this route many many times its a nice drive driving thru the desert

[@LegendaryDCC]

Don't forget the Cajon Pass. One of the most deadly stretch of road with accidents happening almost every day.

[@denizalgazi]

Friday afternoon and Sunday are the absolute worst for traffic. Along the LA-Vegas journey, always pop in to Roy's in Barstow for breakfast or lunch!

[@mrlefty1276]

There are plenty of stops nowadays but its still both boring and dangerous, with many drivers exceeding 100 mph

[@Spintechfilms]

I've never had a problem making the LA to Vegas run, I've always had smooth sails

[@elimelechs.l3246]

Omg, thanks for this. I’ll be soon driving from L.A to Boston😮

[@jkhegarty857]

I'm an East coaster. Thanks for those tips.

[@nicelytravel]

Thanks for watching!

[@davidturk6170]

When driving the I-15 during the day, be prepared to encounter driving idiots; one every five minutes.

[@seashelllseeker9146]

Yes! I'm from Barstow. Definitely try the Old Del Taco! Calico Ghost Town is also worth your time.

[@lhabers]

Nice amazing, thx for sharing 👍

[@TheConorMLife]

This is a very well put together video. Thank you :)

[@mxdanger]

Can’t wait for Brightline West.

[@milagrosvera1075]

Thanks 👍

[@rainbowglittergang1801]

I remember that snow. We made it there just as they were clearing the road so we only had a short wait.

[@robertehatten4847]

Sooooooooo true……..

[@josephferrell7403]

Awesome I literally love Dell taco I eat food there five times a week

[@armandovera2304]

Good information...thanks 👍

[@fishseas]

great video. thanks so much.

[@dalecrawford8476]

Good job guys there is interest here.

[@Dive-Bar-Casanova]

Tesla Charging along this route is best used between midnight and 9 AM, Non-Tesla chargers are usually broken or a long wait.

[@PInk77W1]

I want to ride my bicycle from LV to LA

[@jkhegarty857]

Good Luck Him Bike! 👍 Hope you enjoy it.

[@tech9803]

The interstate sucks and is dangerous for biking. Take the scenic route through Kelso, Amboy and 29 Palms to Banning.

[@evancarr8400]

@@tech9803I go through there all the time to Vegas and I live in Desert Hot Springs

[@RamblinRoverMatt]

And stop at the abandoned water park 👌

[@aloctup]

So ABALOOTLY true!!!

[@SpockBorg5]

Anybody recommend getting off at the state line, and taking Las Vegas Blvd from there to Vegas?

[@ryanyeager3258]

They are working on building a bullet train system that will take people from LA to Las Vegas. It depends on the model trains but typically a bullet train can go over a 100 miles perour taking passengers from Los Angeles to Las Vegas. Think about it for only something like $50 to $100 You could write a train that can go between 1 to 200 miles per hour. Is making a 4 and a 1/2 hour drive to Maybe only 2 hours. And be cheaper and easier to get back on than an airplane.

[@jaymez858]

Great idea, but nobody wants to pay for it. The casinos should subsidize it, but they’re doing fine without it.

[@AngeloBell]

I haven't take that trip from LA to Vegas in over 15 years.

[@xavieravilez3410]

[@dokturgogo]

Are all these videos the same voice. I'm getting bees vibes.

[@steamhard]

You mean don’t drive on a Friday to Vegas from LA or any other area. Plus she’s making it sound like the drive is terrible. Just plan accordingly n you’re good.

[@japanamericacar427]

As someone who has dricen the 15 to victorville on a weekend, yes, it is a nightmare, take a bus or the train once that comes back sometime before 2035, flying is also a nightmare but not as bad as driving

[@Grgaforniateezy]

She’s right. You can leave for Vegas from LA on Friday but leaving after 11am can be a dice roll. I don’t think she’s making it sound terrible just informative for those that don’t know. I went to Vegas for the 1st time in Thanksgiving 2009 and didn’t know any better. We left Sunday at checkout and it took 8 1/2 hrs to get back to OC, 2 hrs just to reach Stateline. I think her review is solid

[@joelhoye5773]

Cut thru Pear Blossom Hwy and save 30-45 minutes. 😎

[@hiheidi9987]

We avoid the Mojave Desert route. The time savings isn’t worth it when you’re driving and you have no cell phone signal. Also the windy road is a rollercoaster at night. Stay on the main highway instead. Consider stopping at Barstow or Baker for gas, comfy pit stops and restaurants. Eddie’s World is a nice stop for gas and clean roomy bathrooms. And the candy shop there has a nice selection.

[@oscarhunn8658]

Why no traveling on a Sunday?

[@danikeebler1662]

You KNOW it is a long drive when you finally find a toilet, there is a line....at the men's room.

[@dellat2909]

Bro the drive is so ez i did it like two times in a week back and forth just leave late and go all night

[@colewildenhus7207]

Can confirm. All accurate. When I drive home from Vegas to LA area I always leave at 6am Sunday morning. If u wait till 8am or later ur fcuked

[@jumpy2xstreaming]

Luckily I’m in San Diego it’s so much easier Riverside San Bernardino have traffic but I’m guessing LA is much worse because I’ve gone rush hour and it’s not terrible

[@Abel-Alvarez]

​@@jumpy2xstreamingAs long as you don't hit the 405 you're good to go. 👍

[@antonbruce1241]

And NEVER leave for Vegas from L.A. on the Friday night before a three-day weekend. It can take you 7-8 hours just to get to Hesperia - about 60 miles. I-15 can be a BITCH!!!

[@danielroque8504]

Biggest mistake from LA to Vegas, is to think about anything! Just jump in you car and go!!

[@scot_irsh]

Everything she said is true. That's why I go to the Indian casinos.

[@bermanmo6237]

At least they don't charge resort fee. yes, many of them have hotels.

[@connorhanlon1209]

Let Vegas. Katy Perry Potter pLAY Pop Music CONNOR birthday happy ❤❤❤❤. Record world ❤❤❤❤

[@TheKeefeGirlz]

We do this drive consistently for many years for work. I average 3-4k miles a month. Every point you made is super accurate 👏 Pilot on Lenwood in Barstow is an easy in and out for gas. Stop either way bc like you said, once you pass Barstow there isn’t even a hotel until Prim NV. For me the hardest leg can be what should be the simplest…. Stateliness to home (NV). Stay safe and STOP. If you have to. Someone needs to build a hotel in Baker.

[@TheKeefeGirlz]

The Arne's Royal Hawaiian Motel (1957-2009).

I think I will just take the train. Oh wait…

[@johnelston4652]

Always stop at barstow an have a mcdonald's

[@alfredgalan1912]

Better yet, stay where you are at.👍

[@Dan-we7vs]

The unexpected like.... losing all your money lol

[@zcvxs]

Took 7 hours .....ill never ever drive again

[@DixiePokerAce]

In other words, don't do it. I have made this drive both ways. It sucks.

[@DaniMrtini]

Meh I've driven literally everyday back and forth for much much much longer than you or 99% of other people making this trip have. Most of these dont apply to most of the year. Driving from Vegas/Henderson to LA should 999999% of the time be a 4-4.5 hour drive with normal traffic. With accident especially on part going downhill from Victorville to San Bernardino, driving to OC will be 5 hours.

[@patrickmccarthy7877]

I don't gamble, not going.

[@henryhecking4026]

OMG you forgot about BunBoy and the world’s tallest thermometer. Look it up.

[@johneastman1905]

No desire to ever be there …
