Hello there Mike!! Wanted to say another great ride on my favorite interstate.I-285 because I am a native Georgian -was born in Marietta GA and lived in a suburb (about 30 miles west of Atlanta called Douglasville for over 30 years) my dad was an over the road truck driver for UPS and driving was his passion. He drive for over 30 years; drove doubles . Driving 285 was our life, and know it very well as being born and raised there was a big advantage as we were very familiar with every interstate going through and around the Atlanta area . Avoiding the morning and evening rush hours was quite crucial . Thank you so much for taking me home on 285 - miss being home. 🙂🙂🙂🙂👍👍👍👍👍🛣🛣🛣🛣🛣

I've been on every section of this interstate. I used(and still do use ) the section from I-85 in College Park to I-20 near Adamsville and I-75 in Marietta. Only two times I have used the section from I-75 to I-85 in Dekalb County Great Video Mike.

@@delmarwilson8560Atlanta and Memphis are abt 336 miles without any obstacles but by road its 391 miles. I-22 & I-20 do connect Memphis and Atlanta almost directly connected other than the fact that I-22 doesn’t go as an interstate or freeway past Mississippi border. Also both I-20 interchanges with I-285 have construction projects to completely reconstruct the interchange. Heres the one near Six Flags: kzbin.info/www/bejne/g2PIpKhoiLd8ga8si=8jfPTRQVqhlNmI6h And the one on the opposite side: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gV7ZYZ2onZeFp7ssi=pS2anNTwWiojKZH2 as good as the interchanges will be, traffic will probably still back up because Atlanta drivers are absolutely terrible.

I’ve been using this interstate for over 40 years and still haven’t gotten to the end :) When I was a new driver circa 1979, traffic was very light on Sunday afternoon. I would drive I-285 just to build experience.

Alright! It's the Redneck 500! This without a doubt was my most hated interstate in the whole US. I have driven in every major metro area of the mainland US on every major interstate and almost all the lesser ones. Nothing is worse than I-285. Nothing. Is. Worse. And trucks are mandated to it except for local deliveries. I will die never having to go back there. What a relief.

I wish an Atlanta outer beltway had been constructed. Even something smaller that was proposed like the Northern Arc(back when Roy Barnes was Georgia governor), would've really helped things with I-285. It seems like an outer beltway will probably never happen, due to how powerful NIMBY interests are in the suburbs north of 285. GADOT has now been talking about widening GA Highway 20, but whether that will reduce pressures on 285, who knows. I fear it won't, myself.
