I used to live on north side drive and I-55 frontage road i miss Jackson Mississippi moved out 5 yrs ago for Colorado 🤦🏾♂️ hoping to move back to Mississippi by summer ‘22 🙏🏾😁
Good ole "Waterworks Curve" 7:00 Guaranteed to have an accident on the northbound side every Friday morning or afternoon. The Stack at 9:00 claimed a life when being erected. Gentlemen fell from the very top. There's days I'd rather be driving in rush hour traffic in ATL than drive the I-20 I-55 section. I'll be glad when they get that whole interchange done too.
@vickie west some days I knew better and got off on High St exit, catch State St to Lakeland Dr and got back on 55N. There are things I miss about living in the area. The jacked up roads and traffic aren't one of them.
7:12-7:16 is where you will find something flipped over or being towed out of the median on the left hand side two to three times a week on the way to work. Don't let it rain that week.
Lived there when I was a teenager, went to Forest Hill High school, worked part time as car hop at White Grill and at Thorten service station. Lived in the Van Winkle area. From What I have heard in the years since I lived there, I would not like to live there now!!!!
Wow! That was a nice drive! Way more interesting than I thought it’d be! I’ve always been a lil’ curious of what I’d be like driving through Jackson.. never enough to look it up though, I guess lol Thanks for sharing! #safetravels
Jackson Ms also know as ''Jack town'' with 153 homicides in December 2021 My advice for those passing through or vacationing, DO NOT stop to refuel , get your gas in Ridgeland BYPASS Jackson exits next safest area is south of Jackson in Byram The bloodshed has driven the state capital’s homicide rate to 97.6 murders per 100,000 residents, 15 times higher than the US rate of 6.5

See he came through Jackson during the early early morning traffic or on a recent holiday. If you really want to see Jackson driving come through 8:00am - 5:00pm
I'm from Jackson and drive semi trucks and surprisingly we have some of the better highways in the country considering the economic difference compared to more wealthy states.... but don't drive on our city streets lol

Did you know that Jackson is the best source of Carbon Dioxide gas in the world. It sits atop an extinct volcano. There are CO2 wells all about town. BTW There is another extinct volcano in Midnight MS.
At 9:00.00 you exited Hinds County and entered Rankin County.... Well, I now see you knew that. FYI, Rankin County is a much nicer place and that is where Robin Williams' great grandfather lived. He was the Governor of Mississippi. He authored the MS Constitution after the Civil War during Reconstruction when Mississippi rejoined The United States.
I'm from Northeast MS and MS aint shit but a racist ass state built to keep everybody fkd up but the rich yts shiit even throw dey own to da wolves I'll never live der again
@@JohnJones-uh3sp sounds like you blame racism on your failures. Mississippi is a Republican state. It is dems that are racist. Mississippi was a democratic state until Reagan was President. You need to study you history before you start talking. Also, I am from NE Mississippi.

lol, the only reason it's quicker is because everyone drives like a crazy person on that road. I-55 is still crazy, but at least its not got people going 100 mph everywhere.
For whatever reason, these sounds are so soothing
I'm 100% with ya buddy! As an autistic man, white noise is very calming and decompressing for my mind.
great driving! its pretty interesting to see a road ive driven thousands of times.
Driving for Western express coming from California going through Mississippi to Nashville Tennessee my home Natchez ✌️
I love Natchez beautiful place..
You should drive that area in Jackson during a 5:00 work day. Traffic backs up bad.
Oh really huh? Is that just during the school year, or even also during the summer break?
@@chillbro2275 both
I've been on 55 south of I-20. It's a much better ride. Now they just need to open the State Street exit back up.
They really do
I live in Canton MS and either make the drive on 55 and get off at Pearl Street to get to my parent's house or take 220.
Cool video of my City. No talking. Just cruising.
Great driving tour, Mike. I enjoy them. This is my first time seeing I-55 South of Jackson, MS.
Thanks. Mine too.
Been down THOUSANDS of times
Mississippi’s road way signs remind me of Georgia and South Carolina’s
I-55 in Jackson, MS reminds me of I-85 through Montgomery, AL
10:45 FDOT Pavement
🎉 Jackson definitely looks and feels bigger than Montgomery.
Florida pavement sound at 10:45, it reminds me of I-85 in Montgomery.

Awesome drive along I 55 South in Jackson MS, the state capital. Love the city it's very nice.
So glad I moved from Jackson. Hasn't changed in 30 years.. No disrespect...
it has become a warzone ...
I hope it gets better especially for the youth
I'm from Jackson and drive semi trucks and surprisingly we have some of the better highways in the country considering the economic difference compared to more wealthy states.... but don't drive on our city streets lol
Definitely better than South Carolina.
Hi Chris! I have a professional dispatching business! Let’s partner up!
Our city streets are probably the worst in the country! It's like driving on a roller-coaster track.

Great video of I-55, Mike! First time actually seeing the interstate in Mississippi. Also, in 8:31, kinda sounds like Texas concrete.
Thanks
And it sounds like it has for more than 30 years! The thumps and the tires clicking over the transition. It is soothing.

Best bet, stay on the interstate through Jackson, and do not go into town.
is it free to travel on interstate highways across States or do we pay a fee?
