On the hunt for the fabled "best driving road in the world" James May has his second bit of bad luck of the day. Forced to bunk down in their cars for the night Jeremy offers the boys some bizarre drinks to help them sleep. Finally the Transfăgărășan Highway comes into view and Jeremy's Aston Martin DBS Volante, Richard's Ferrari California and James' Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 Spyder proceed with joy.

IMMO Lab or maybe because this scene was a bit too old for a drone. Maybe drones existed back then but they weren't as good, cheap and widely spread as nowadays. Using a drone is much cheaper and easier and way less dangerous for the cameraman and the crew members as if something bad happened to the chopper it might cause deaths . So drones are much better but this scene reminds me of older days. (Not too old days but at least older)

IMMO Lab of course they were cheaper but it seems they were not practical. Who used a drone back in 2012 to film anything. Maybe the issue was with the camera quality and not only the drone or the drones' battery or maybe it's connectivity (it not being able to connect to the remote from far away places like nowadays)

The other thing I noticed about the Transfargarsan Highway was just how stunningly beautiful the scenery is. Reminds me a little bit of Scotland.

Romania is one of the best kept travel secrets. If you haven't been, do it as its pff awesome. Love Transfagarasan so much (go in the summertime as they close the road in the cooler months via a sked) but the road along the river olt from Sibiu to Cluj Napoca is so gorgeous. Honourable mentions are the road out of bucuresti heading north into predeal & valea prahovei, Transalpina, Sinaia, Brasov & A2 to Constanta. Glad that TG could showcase the country, but they missed out on bucuresti old town at night

Igor K The road is closed during the winter months because is too dangerous for driving. It climbs very high in the Fagaras mountains, so is covered in snow, black ice, one simply cannot drive on it in winter. Unless you trying to commit suicide, in which case, the burned wreck off your car will be found after 4 months, in spring, when road re-opens. Usually is not a very traveled route, especially in spring and fall, but in summer, is a real driving experience. Trucks and high tonnage vehicles can't use it, its a strictly cars only road, as far as I know.

The Vidraru dam was not built by soviets! The communist leaders ordered it and was bulit by Romanians in the ‘60 as the 5th in Europe, now the 16th tallest in the world. Transfăgărășan was also initiated by the communist party in the 70’, this time Ceașescu, as a strategic military route. Nice to see that after 7 years, the conditions from this video improved, the roads are better, Transalpina was reopened (which is a lot more challenging to drive expecially from the south -steeper, reaching 2145m highest point).
