- Rush hour traffic from I-635 near Coit Rd, through the old interchange (left onto North Central Expressway) then east on Belt Line Rd through Richardson and Garland. Fifteen minutes of old-time traffic for your viewing pleasure.
Really fckn kool that someone put this out there...thank you
Awesome video, definitely brought back some memories. I graduated from Allen HS in 90. Between 90 until 95 when I joined the Army I used to fight the Dallas rush hour traffic daily and I can't even begin to count the times I used to drive back to Allen Friday and Saturday nights/early mornings after spending hours country dancing in Dallas at Chances or Cowboys lol Good times. Thanks for posting this
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@ForecastLab you couldnt have gotten a,better,camcorder ive seen better quality from a teens prom by 89 better quality and smaller ones exist don't know what your excuse was
i remember the 75 and 635 the old interchange when i was born in 1999 and then 3 years until 2005 it converted into a high five interchange
very , very cool. thank you for posting it. my old stomping grounds.. Pizza Villa no longer there: when the owner died his two sons disputed over the bussiness- so they closed it down completely, it was my favorite pizza! one of the RR tracks you crossed is now a DART rail overhead crossing. that Kroger is ling gone.( just as you stopped at the Glennville red light, i was in the exact same lane in 2000 , but i didnt stop- i went right thru and totaled 2 vehicles . DWI. never drink and drive)
I can't believe how little was up 75 before they change the cross ramps at 635!
I was 3 months old somewhere in Dallas when this video was shot. This is so cool. Thanks for posting.
Fuzzy memories, like a dream.
Thanks for posting! I drove that route (basically from TI on Forest Lane) up 75 to Plano every day and it was brutal on day shift ! 75 and 635 looks like California now with all the sweeping overpasses... I moved out in 93 and sure don't miss all that traffic. There was always construction going on for the 13 years I lived there!
That 75/635 intersection looks completely different now!
I remember when the High 5 interchange was being built from 2002 to 2005. It replaced the antiquated loops from the 60s, but didn't completely solve the traffic issues. My family lived in Farmers Branch at the time and frequently visited the Valley View mall and some relatives who lived in richardson at that time. Eventually 635 was updated again in the 2010s with an express lane. (I was born in 1999)
The high 5 interchange is supposedly the tallest in the world, at 120 feet high.
I couldn't watch too much, as it made me a bit motion sick. However, it was cool to see the roads back at that time. I lived in Dallas from 1991 to 2002.
My city!!2 months after i was born.I was a baby somewhere around this city.Gotta love RUclips!
this is awesome, Pizza Villa looks completely unchanged
Gone now
Last intersection…MAKE THAT LEFT! Yale baby!!
I remember those days. Dallas traffic was actually pretty nasty in spots.
Before the high 5 was built. I remember this as a kid
I miss the old high five interchange I remembered when I was young born in 1994 I lived In Dallas since almost 30 years I miss the time when the freeway went vroom but now it large mixmaster the old high five was better than today I hate the new light
I was 12 when this was filmed. Now in Hurst but I take that ramp all the time when driving for Uber. Now there’s a HUGE ramp from 635 west to 75 n. Beltline is about the same.
The section of Beltline from Greenville to Plano hasn't changed much at all, if any.
HOLY CRAP, I remember that........
The good ole days Dallas 😉💯
NO move on
Right now I'm in the building on the left at 0:55, Embassy Suites Hotel, May 17, 2014, 25 yrs. after this video was shot.
3:07 - Eastbound Belt Line Road signals resemble 3M PV signals
10:15 it’s funny how that light is still the same after almost 33 years
I think Jet Word Travel is a company that sets people up with temporary English teaching jobs in Japan. I don't know if that's what they did back then, but it's what they do now, I think. Were there any hospitals in this video? If so, it's probably the hospital I was born at. I was born in Garland.
It's 2020, and they still ain't done with "Widen 75".
635 and Central (especially 635) looked so much nicer then. With the greenery between east and west bound 635, much easier on the eye. 635 and Central really look ugly as hell now. And the traffic isn't any better for all the new roads.
Agreed... interestingly you can see a bit of 635 near the Tollway in the opening clip of Office Space, probably taken around 1998, but I don't know if that was the same as 635 in the 1980s.
Personally, I think 635 does move better than it did before. Though the over pass going 75 north to 635 west is always bad now! The hov/toll road is cool though.
feels like he gonna rear end every car that stops in front of him
Drum brakes lol
Historical video with the cracked windshield and an early version of a dash cam
I actually have 20 or 30 minutes of tripod-mounted footage of I-35 in 1991.. I'm not sure if I uploaded it yet. There was definitely a lot less traffic.
@@ForecastLab seems somewhat safe and no problems right?
@@ForecastLab hmm no anwser must be dead
Lots of road hogs back then.
Was about to get out of 11th grade when this was filmed.
So, how huge was the camcorder? 😂
My hood. 75 and Beltline
I remember when you had to be in the left lane to get on 75 north! long time ago
Yeah, was just thinking about that the other day.
No texting back in those days..lol
No but there was more hair, makeup, and newspapers.
Too bad you guys didn't catch Central between downtown and 635 before they widened it.
Sharing the news
I’m 10 years old and I know the way and I remember
Fucking fortnight kid
Farry You don’t remember 1980 you were not alive.
1:19
You almost got OBOK China in the shot
That place was TASTY...
Hope you got that crack in your windshield taken care of...lol
Howdy
Howdy parter
The driver tailgates like a narcissist
It’s likely that the passenger is just zooming the camera…
Honestly……Traffic flowed WAY better back then. People actually knew how to drive and knew what to expect. Call me crazy but, no one today knows how easy it was to connect with other drivers. If you know, you know. Today…..Nah. Screw you buddy.
