This video follows a portion of I-87/287 (the New York State Thruway) through Rockland County and across the Tappan Zee Bridge into Westchester County just after the toll booth.

  • @nixonGD
    very nice movie with lots of interesting informations. thanks!
  • Thanks for the memories it's been over 22 years since I crossed the Tap!
  • for 25 years now, since August 1, 1995, 65 mph has been allowed in New York, on rural portions of the New York State Thruway.

    Even though it's falling apart, I really do love the Tappan Zee Bridge. Great video!
  • Damn, that rocked! Another great video, Evan! Happy New Year and looking forward to more.
  • Nice trivia :) I've read somewhere the bridge is also structurally deficient due to the inferior materials used during the Korean War shortages in the early 1950's.

    Thanks for the upload. Haven't been anywhere outside of Massachusetts in the Northeast. That bit of history regarding the Port Authority was somewhat disturbing.
  • @MyMultimedia I am, but I travel frequently throughout the NE and other states that use the E-ZPass system. I also have a SunPass, PeachPass, and a QuickPass, NC's new electronic toll system.

    Nice video. Cheers from your Brazilian friend.
  • I like anyone who puts travel videos up. I like to know all highways of the United States. How much was the toll?

    They put new railings on the Tappan Zee Bridge since the last time I was on it (which was years ago). It used to have this cool steel railing made up of four rows of squares going all the way to the road. The new railing is probably much safer, the old one looked cooler.
  • @aswchris I heard this on the History Channel "The Crumbling of America." It covered this bridge. Wasn't there ideas to replace the bridge to make it efficient but I guess that's not happening?
