Loved this series. LA 1 from beginning to end was always one of those “bucket list” road trips for me and I got to experience it vicariously through you guys. Look forward to bingeing your channel.

504RoadTrips Yes I did.

I did this road trip about a month ago. I really enjoyed it. I found the marker that sits where all three states meet.

We didn't venture out of the car after that long drive. I understand it's only a minute's walk from the road.

Lovely video as always, I have two questions. What were the "pink" trees about 11 minutes in? and what do the flashing amber lights mean at the junction around the 10 minute mark?

Andrew Leader the flashing amber is just a caution light. Traffic on the crossing road would have a flashing red light, which is basically a stop sign (and probably has a stop sign planted in the ground as well). The lights don't change colors like a traffic signal would. They usually put these in when two numbered highways intersect, but traffic is never heavy enough to warrant a regular signal. Looking at the video on my tiny phone screen, I'm going to guess that the pink trees were Crepe Myrtles in bloom. It was about the right time of year for that.

I thought interstate 49 started from interstate 10 all the way to interstate 20 at first

It does. There is a segment from I-20 to I-220 that is not complete. Then it goes to the Arkansas state line.

@@cromwellj That western segment is to continue south of I-20 to connect with TX Highway 96 as a feeder to US 59 / I-69. Texas got their side done long ago and is waiting on Louisiana to get off their duffs to complete their part. Shreveport has been holding it up by refusing to bulldoze the route thru ghetto neighborhoods.

@@cromwellj It is part of the I-49 & I-20 & I-69 planned routes. Louisiana is too cheap to complete their segment of it. I-49 was a joke after its completion. The US DOT gave the state money to mow the median yet it wasn't done so weeds grew so tall that drivers couldn't see traffic on the opposite lanes. That led to deaths when drivers couldn't see out of control vehicles flying thru the weeds to suddenly appear flying out to hit them head-on or spinning out in front of them. The Feds forced the state DOT to cut that crap with the weeds growing back tall again. The Feds probably gave Louisiana the money to build that spur only for it to disappear into politicians pockets. Senator John Kennedy probably got his cut of the action since he was state treasurer at the time.
