    5:35 Car went thru red with a very long yellow. I hated the Blvd - tried to avoid it any time I could. Especially that area just above Bustleton Ave where the trees are right along the curb with no guardrails. Once you get to Welsh or Grant area, fines can be super high as there've been many accidents with people driving over 100 mph. Once you crossed Red Lion, you entered into my general neighborhood if you were to turn left - though another mile or two north. At that intersection was a Sports Authority that got a lot of my business. For reference, you just left the 19115 zip code are and are now in 19116.
    I finally, after 56 years, moved out of Philly as I was moving further and further northeast every few years. I liked the city for the most part, but after a year + of being out of it, I'll never go back. Another banger vid bro!
