Welcome to mapmaker1559 Roadtrips!
Whether you're checking out the DMV's (DC/MD/VA) complex road system to see it before you drive it or just simply looking for a nice way to sit back and take a load off by going for a relaxing ride in the car, you've come to the right place.
Most of the videos on this channel are filmed using a mix of a quality phone camera, a peripheral dashcam, and/or an action cam. In addition, filming these videos by hand permits camera rotations, allowing for unique perspectives on interesting road features only visible out the side window.
In addition to filming popular and iconic roads, I also film roads that are somewhat obscure, so you'll see everything from roads you pass by everyday to hidden gems you may never have guessed existed. If this seems like your kind of thing, be sure to subscribe. New videos are published every week, and you never know where in the DMV I'll be driving next!

Can I get that location?

What’s that place?
Nice, but needs to be slowed down unable to read signs.
Driven it many times, one of my favorite roads. Driving too fast to read road signs, though!
To think I drove over that bridge at least 2 times a day for a year, to & from work. The view from this bridge was breathtaking! Sorry for those killed in the collapse. May they RIP.
Thanx a mill I live in Baltimore and I have been across the Bay Bridge and the Potomac River(Harry Nice) but never the others on the Eastern shore and I learned about the Sinepuxent Bay and the Chinoteague… 😉
I enjoyed going over this bridge. I live in an area where there are many bridges, Hampton Virginia. I am used to having to cross them. This is not scary. If anyone reading this has driven the old James River Bridge, between Newport News and Isle Of Wight County, that was a very scary ride.
I prefer tunnels to bridges - and this is the newer of the two in the Port of Baltimore. My travel music was Janet Jackson's "Lonely" from "Rhythm Nation:1814".
Were you going to DC using this route?
Saw MSNBC news report about its collapse. Went over this Bridge in summer of 2022 while my brother went over the Bridge from Annapolis, MD to Easton, PA area in Spring 2023. Their route was 97-695 via FSK Bridge to 95 north then 476 North to 22 East
UPDATE: The Francis Scott Key Bridge has collapsed after a container ship collided with one of the center support piers.

Thanks for capturing this. Certainly provides perspective regarding the size and utility of this bridge. Terrible that people were harmed and possibly killed with this collapse.
My favorite way to avoid Baltimore City traffic - GONE! Lord have mercy on those lost.
Diversity was this bridges strength.
Such a tragedy. I pray for victims and their families.
Is the key bridge and bay bridge the same or different
Such a great tragedy 😔 such a Beautiful Bridge. Our sympathy to all those affected 🙏🏾
Can't do that now.
Can you imagine riding on it, and all of a sudden it collapses. What a horror.
RIP
RIP to the victims
It's gone now

RIP Francis Scott Key Bridge.
yay you made a last video was 4 mothes ago
What are the green arrows for prior to the tunnel and why in the tunnel are there so many overhead lights? I question this everytime I take the trip
I believe the arrows are to indicate that all lanes are open (like there's no accident or anything). I don't know why, but it must be a legal requirement to have those before tunnels because all tunnels seem to have them, even small ones like this one. And this overhead lights of course are to improve visibility, especially since the tunnel is short enough that no one is going to turn on their highlights while passing through.

One time, when I was 13 years old, my Parents, Tebletse Tedla and Tesfaye Wegderesgn, younger Brother, Yared Tesfaye, and I went to Annapolis, Maryland, which is the Capital City of Maryland, on Friday November 28, 2003, which was on the day after Thanksgiving, I almost threw up.
This trip is brought to you by Shenandoah National Park.
13:00 This bridge pavement sounds rare.
8:55, 10:00, 10:38, 21:14 Those bridges sound like the I-70/US 40 Monocacy River bridge, Spring Ridge Parkway bridge and MD-144 Old National Pike bridge passed Frederick, Maryland. Also the right side road pavement of the Patapsco River bridge in Ellicott City, Maryland.
Videos don't do Harpers Ferry justice, it's one of the most beautiful places in the world.
Hoping I-95 will open back up soon in Northeast Philadelphia.
cant wait til that I 95 construction in MD gets done
I was Baltimore for 10 days . I can honestly say I hated that city. All I could think was"Where are the damn sidewalks"? Plus the bumpiest roads in America. And no bicycle lanes or routes.
Back in my day I 270 in 2022 we went from germantown in summer camp
How is WMATA going under sr28 bridges
176A Telegraph road here. Some race the 495 loop like its a NASCAR track. Love the videos of the DMV so I can just watch and observe without the hazard of the lunatics on the road.
1:32:32 WOW, unbelievable...Never stop in the middle of the road like that folks! If you miss an exit or are going the wrong way, don't use the emergency turnaround
