TheM5 is terrifying at 4am in da morn

Nice video when they had cash payment option back in September 2002 on both M4 Western and M5 Southwestern motorways you have to put in a ticket on the exit ramp if you are paying by cash before all electronic tolling. Even my mum's relatives has to drive within 80 km/h (50 mph US & UK) in the M5 tunnel which might trigger the speed camera at 90km/h (55mph us/Canada but 56 mph UK)

[@jgroenveld1268]

Just a question - is the unit of a mile varies between the US and the UK?

[@EpicThe112]

J van der Kaas they are the same for both United Kingdom and the United States but kilometer per hour speed limit conversions to MPH are different in the United States and UK example 100 km/h 60 mph USA but 62 mph UK & 90 km/h 55mph USA but 56 mph UK

Hi there. Just thought I'd let you know that the entire stretch of the hume from melbourne to sydney is still not entirely freeway standard. Just outside melbournes northern suburb craigieburn a stretch of the hume for about 2-3k's is dual carriageway but speed limits are lowered to 80k and there are some businesses on the melbourne bound side along with a road that enters the hume like a side street meeting a regular old arterial road! Not even a slip lane or propper lane entry!

[@antonklroberts]

steggles mc nuggets I think that stretch of road your talking about is now known as Sydney Road (SR55) and it’s now considered the Old Hume Hwy since the construction of the M80 western ring road. Now the end of the Hume Hwy is at Thomastown at the interchange with the Western & Metropolitan Ring Rd. Otherwise the full section of the Hwy between Thomastown and Casula in Sydney’s south west is up to freeway standard. And now you can use the M5 as a Hume Freeway aswell

[@alexthompson5275]

No kalkallo is still M31 not sr55

[@Rip_MrAim]

The good old days when the M5 east was free :(

[@davidlang1125]

Loved it! I’ve subscribed!

[@zelezforever9161]

[@RoadTubeRichard]

Haha, well done and thank you!

[@alexthompson5275]

the Hume also is another route to Adelaide from Sydney via the Sturt Hwy A20 Canberra connectors and from Melbourne the Hume also another route to Brisbane via Shepparton on the Goulburn Valley hwy and fwy M39

[@RoadTubeRichard]

Yes, I did the drive from Adelaide!!!

[@alexthompson5275]

and I drove on this coming out of Sydney

[@manbuster243]

Hey man, great video. Just wondering how you are able to photoshop all the road signs into your video?

[@tedsmith6137]

M31 & M5? You're on the M2 at the start, wrong side of the Harbour!

[@whitlammouk7313]

Can you make the video longer

[@JTransport]

Why don't you upload so much?

[@pianocrisante90]

I would like to learn more about adding notations on the screen. What exactly is the procedure? Because I am doing a road video to Wollongong next week, and I am very curious about what to do. I have been doing some research on Google, and I could not find any solutions, especially when adding these road signs. If you could show me how, it would be greatly appreciated. I also want to know what particular software is being used.

[@RoadTubeRichard]

pianocrisante90 Crisante Hi I created the road signs with paint.net of all features. There is no real art to it. I just practiced and got better I then imported the images into the video with Sony Vegas Pro. Hope this helps

[@pianocrisante90]

Is paint.net a website?

[@Skybar23]

I wana see you film your journey into that airport tunnel and time between Mon-Saturday. It is an absolute useless piece of road infrastructure. The Westconnex could come any sooner.

[@alexthompson5275]

They have started building it it was under construction when I was in Sydney last
