This is indeed your best work yet, excellent content & production all the way. Lots of light posts, this would be great to film at night.

You should come check out the newly reconstructed 10 fwy in Tucson. It's really cool. Or better yet, the 10 east of Tucson thru the Rincon mtns, pretty kewl drive to Benson.

Arizona allows trucks to use all lanes, unlike in California, which restricts trucks to the right 2 lanes. Arizona's HOV network only operates during rush hours (I believe between 6 - 9 a.m. and 3 - 7 p.m.). Outside of the HOV restricted periods, trucks can also use the lanes.

Awww I traveled this way many times

[@ishwithfish]

[@citizen7751]

Music fits in smoothly. Is catchy also.

[@FreewayBrent]

Thanks! I still have yet to upload I-17, as well as Loop 101. When I come back to Phoenix in Arizona, I'll record the rest of the freeway network there.

I Used to Live in Az and yes you can cross the Hov solid lines unlike in LA

@ir10031981: Hey, I didn't even think about that, lol. Weren't the speed limits 65 on rural Arizona interstates and 55 through Phoenix and Tucson?

[@EuropeanRoads]

They want to widen I-10 through Tempe to 24 lanes due to an estimated AADT of 450,000 in 2025. If it is that wide, you should definatly come back and make another video :)

[@FreewayBrent]

Maybe. I'm 50/50 now on whether or not to return to California in September or October now. I'm coming to the realization that I won't be able to see everything that I want in my North American trip, between now and early September. So, if I do decide to extend my trip by an extra month, I may indeed make a 4 or 5 day run to Chicago. One can afford the luxury of time, when unemployed. :-)

Driving in the evening on I-10 west is so bad.. THE SUN!!.. Ditty in the morning as well except going east

[@FreewayBrent]

No problem! Eventually, I'll have the entire freeway system for Phoenix uploaded onto KZbin. :-)

[@FreewayBrent]

Wait, they're *completely* done with reconstruction now? I filmed I-10 in Tucson, but they were still shifting traffic around, back in July.

[@christophers.o622]

They shift traffic for fun & enjoyment in Ugly,Backward,1870’s,Barbarian,Anti Progress,Sh@thole,Loser City Tucson metro area. In the Ugly,Fake,Phoney,Plastic,Smog City Phoenix metro area they close sections of freeway on Sundays for fun & enjoyment.

[@FreewayBrent]

lol, thanks mang!

[@EuropeanRoads]

wtf, a semi blasting by in the HOV lane?

12/8/2010 today markes the 15th anniversary of the 75 mph speed limit in Arizona

I luv Phoenix, Arizona. At first I was talkin about movin 2 New Orleans. But wen I got there I thought 2 myself dat da place was 2 small 4 me. But I will say dat I will visit New Orleans every now and den because I don't hate da place. It's just dat I wanted 2 live in a much bigger city 4 da rest of my life. So wen I moved 2 Phoenix, Arizona wit my family I found myself falling in luv wit da city each and every day. Dat's why I'm stayin here 4 gud and neva leavin.

[@FreewayBrent]

This is definitely one of the nicest freeways in the Phoenix area.
