- Опубліковано 24 січ 2019
- Los Angeles has some of the worst traffic in the world. But just how bad is it? We raced 13 miles through the city of Los Angeles during morning rush hour to see which common mode of transportation was fastest: car, bike, or the metro.
The results might surprise you in this one, broh!

LIKE this video so we have an excuse to do more stuff with Raghav. He'll hate that 😅😅
Please make more videos with Raghav

Should have showed us what google maps looks like before the race started. Try this on a friday at 5pm after work thats the worst fooking time to drive.
Guys loved this video. You guys should do more challenges and things around la. Maybe import vs domestic vs something else long race like 300 plus miles since the bigger displacement would need to fill more often. Kicker you allowed to only fill 20 bucks at a time idk good fun video tho
Dude more video bout Raghav pleaseeeee
I don't think raghav could have walked any slower
nor to mention start him at the top of a carpark

Train was clearly the winner. Dude was walking like a snail and chilling the whole way, and only took about 10 minutes more. He could easily have been napping the whole way. You can also listen to your own music with headphones. Only thing he can't do is eat and drink.
you can drink just close lids with straws at least at the metro here in AZ.
I can eat and drink in Metrolink :)
Lmao you follow the rules on the metro i be eating anything in there
I eat and drink all the time on la metro 😂 it ain't strictly enforced

@@found13 she's talking about the metro guy
@@found13 In his defense, what else is supposed to do in a non bike friendly enviroment, I never saw any bike lanes on the bike guy cams and stopping in the ped crossing makes the drivers see that he's there
And there's a guy on a bike 🤣
thought the same thing hahaha
only like a split seconds worth of footage was used lol
Train guy is adorable. It only took him a few minutes longer at a slow pace and no stress
Cycling cant be seen as stressful because it’s amazing
And you can watch donut media while traveling
He might have won if he had just walked a little faster. LOL!
@@DaveCM Right? The cyclist was knocking himself out to win, and he only just beat the car. Raghav looked like he was trying to lose and he still almost tied with an AUTOMOBILE.
@@TheConjurersTower I am an avid cyclist but he was pushing harder than most would do on a typical commute. Most bike commuters go just fast enough to get where they are going but not sweat too much for obvious reasons. If he had ridden it like a regular commute, he probably would have came in last by at least a little given that distance.
The metro was only 12 minutes behind the bike, and 6 minutes slower than the car. And he got to sit on a train a whole and not stress out. So I'd say that would be the best option for that commute
It should never take more than 20 mins to go 13.6 miles.
Don't forget to count all the types of people you have to deal with on a daily basis while being on foot.
Don't forget about the time he lost walking down the parking garage
Plus, you can get stuff done!
Asuming your working on a laptop...
And also got some nice walking done
Train was better. Look at how chill the guy was the entire way. I take that over dealing with traffic, any day.
You can also get work done on your commute if you take the train. Source: I commute via subway.
Also best way is to have two bikes, one at each end of the train. You bike to the subway, lock it there, take the subway, unlock your bike at the other end, and bike the rest of the way. It's the fastest way to get around. I only have a bike at the house end of my commute, because the place I commute to is right next to a subway stop. But if it wasn't, I would definitely do that.
You know you can easily find a road where there's no traffic right ?
@@makeachaininthecommentsect7953 In LA at rush hour? Nope.
@@tealmer3528 Why not take your bike on the train
@@FredrickTheMoose2007 It's a pain in the ass and most transit agencies also don't allow you to take it during rush hour. It also means you can't get on a packed train. Source: I have been commuting by bike and subway for years
Also if you bring your bike on and there's no rack for it (as is the case on most systems) you can't get any work done.
I'm Dutch. From the country that actually has safe infrastructure for bikes. That bike ride through LA seemed terrifying to me. I'm happy my commute is a leisurely, non sweaty, bike ride along safe, bike friendly infrastructure.
I live in the Netherlands and combining bike+train, my commute of 38km (24 miles) can take from 48m to 1h, depending on my timing.
However, on the train I can work a little bit and my employer actually recognises that time and lets me go home earlier.
I guess that's a winner ;)
No way I would ride a bike on those streets either. There might be a bike lane, but cars and trucks just park in them anyway. Train was clear winner.
Their cycling infrastructure is... simply depressing, but that's true for loads of other countries as well
my thoughts exactly
@MantisSZNYA2 I've never cycled in the UK, so I dunno
😂😂😂....The dude taking the “metro” looks so enthused.
I want to say that he would have won if he ran from the start to the metro station
Edwin Cristobal He would have at least beat the car.
@@justahasbeen There was, in the train station, but very brief cuts.
His name is Raghav, you uncultured swine. Pardon my language.
He never said a word the whole video
That wasn't fair, Raghav/Metro would have won if you had all started at ground level instead of a rooftop!
Don’t you think that raghav would’ve taken the loft down?
Right!? Also if he had jogged/scooter to the station/destination.
That would have cut the possible 6 min difference between the transit and the car. Time was at only 6- 12 min difference.
That's what makes the transit the most ideal of the three. No sweat and affordable $.
@BadSmoker95 Tell that to the very sweaty biker in the vid.
OOF probably
Marty you bike 13 miles, you will be sweating fool.
When I take the subway in NYC, I carry a small electric scooter with me so I can ride to my final destination on it :)
Folding bike also works great!
I thought you were going to say "...so I can ride it inside the train and save extra time and energy"
@@BadassBikerOwns Well, little trick, while you are waiting for your train, know where on the platform at the other end you want to get off at, and then get *on* the train in that spot, so that you don't have to walk extra at the end.
about 20 years ago I did the math: buying a car to commute, or buying a bike. With a bike I was paying myself $8 an hour to get exercise.
yeah, bikes are elite
Bikes >>>> everything
😀 no rush 🚴♂️🚴♂️🚴♂️😉💪
And it saves time since it's time you don't need to go to the gym or whatever your prefered worlout is.
yeah, but then you have to uber everywhere or rent a car for everything that you can't bike to.

@@qas2644 I think you didn't understand me right: Americans don't care enough about health, environment, costs, parking, space, stress or other things. Mainly about Speed and convinience.

So don't call me stupid. You should rather concentrate on all the aspects of (City) Transportation and then write something.

There's something about Ragav that makes me want to cheer for him
It's the fact he's so miserable about it. Like we all feel about going to work everyday. Sadly, I live in a country where Ragav would have beat them easy.

*Shows a big train behind Raghav*
I am blown away by the fact that the metro cars are THAT EMPTY during rush hour.
I didn’t know LA even had a subway, and neither do a lot of people who live there, so that might be it
They are empty for a reason. Nobody takes the train in California. You'd need to have a very specific living situation for the train to be useful to you
@@SoulEraser000 Here in San francisco we do. In fact i cant even find a seat on BART when im coming back on work.

RandomMannith UP TO SPEED ON RAGHAV LMAO
It will be the James May from usa! ahahahaha
RandomMannith Raghav is the man for this one haha
Raghav was only six minutes slower than the car, and he certainly wasn't rushing. He didn't have to concentrate on driving, so he could have spent that time reading, or working, or napping (everyone loves a sleeping commuter). Sounds like a public transportation win to me.
Depends on transfer and which line and how often the services are, but yes, I have to agree. I live in the centre of Sydney (Australia), and the only few times I drove was either when I was getting new furniture from the store, or when I was going on a day trip somewhere outside the city.
Also we don't know if he had to wait 10-15 minutes for the train, if it left at a perfect time he definitely would've won.
Btw the car driver was getting passed in every scene he was in. Dude was not rushing at alllllll
i have to imagine that riding a bike through a traffic jam is so satisfying
not really, you inhale all the car exhaust
As someone who has ridden in the sidewalk next to the jam, it's super satisfying.
Lesson number 1: Never take the 10 during rush hour or beach traffic. Take Olympic or Pico. What were you thinking?
right? fuckin' amateurs'
Nearly an hour to drive 13 miles?! Wtf?!
Welcome to Los Angeles, bruh.
And they have the audacity to call that comfortable. I'd be bored out of my mind. Bike is the best option IMO.
Wow I did not even realise it was only 20 km lol. I have multiple times driven 200km in 2 hours in rush hour before, sometimes 2 hours 30min on a bad day. And I thought the extra 30 min was bad.
It takes 1 hour to get into downtown L.A and 2 hours to get out
Sounds like NYC. 40 min to 9 miles. 😂
If Raghav had a scooter or a longboard in conjunction with the Metro he probably could have won, or at least beat the car.
Jason Ackerman or power walked, I jog to the bus so i dont miss that shit
What i really want to do to commute with metro is riding a foldable bike from home to station, and then bring it into the train, and ride it again to campus
Im doing public transit but i'm purchasing a escooter this week and I think if they both work great together I probably won't get a car for a very long time (which is good because I will not be able to afford a car in la with gas, insurance and parking)
Adi Abdillah why get a foldable bike? The metro has lots of space for bikes.
@@dmoneyswagg64in my city, only foldable bikes are allowed to be carried into the metro
I imagine an ebike would also be pretty good, same or better time as bike but no getting all sweaty.
Car = comfiest but could be stressful
Bicycle = healthiest but sweatiest
Public Transport = slow but you can be drunk
Motorcycle = fast and anti-stress
The train guy didn't break any traffic rules, is not exhausted, wasn't stressed during bad traffic. He won in my book. And also is the metro really that slow in LA? 😐
It’s not that slow but sometimes the stop is a bit farther than most cities. That’s why folks love electric scooters to go that last segment.
Haha yeah it is. It takes an hour to go 2 miles via public buses.
@@elianna838 Buses maybe but trains on dedicated right-of-ways is far quicker and cheaper. Buses can accomplish this if more lanes were made available but the Orange Line is an example of a successful BRT
In some sections the metro is at street level and doesn't have right of way. You have to sit at traffic lights and wait for traffic to clear intersections. The line he was on if terrible downtown once you get out of the underground station at 7th street.
LA is so spread out it feels like its slow, its not too bad
We need more of Raghav on the show
"Have a great day at school!" lol
I was actually rooting for him lol
as per indian standard he is on time. lol
Anyone who can make you laugh without saying a word has comedy in their veins
Can we do a collab?
An Ebike could be the best. But, the train looked pretty chill!
The best solution is an overpowered ebike, the speed of a car with none of the expense, and the shortcuts and convenience of a bike with none of the sweat
Motorcycle is the fastest way around los angeles because lane splitting is legal in California.
David Hunt what if it rains?
Carlitox b it’s LA it never rains
Also the most dangerous though.
Fastest way to end up in the hospital
I can’t stand motorcycles here in la😠

This is LA, the motorcyclist is already in the hospital.
@@tkarlo savage 😂
@@tkarlo This would be an accurate depiction of reality.
Wait can you lane split in la?
As a motorcyclist who went through LA I can confirm that I never have to stop for traffic until I'm at the front of the light. 2 years ago when the 10 was closed due to a bomb threat, I split about 4 miles in dead-stopped traffic.

I loved this. I think the takeaway should be to use a hybrid of the transportation methods as opposed to driving everywhere. I learned this in high school when I started driving. I lived pretty close to the school (5 miles one way) and traffic right after school would be horrendous, so I just started walking home after school let out if I didn't want to catch the bus and stay after school later. The only time I really drove to school was on Fridays since I could go elsewhere when it let out. I still do this in adulthood since I live walking distance from work. That was an underrated benefit of the pandemic. It let people work from home and commute less. Which really changes the life you live for the better. Lol.
Awesome video! This reminded me of the shows done by Top Gear. Please do more!
Why does Raghav wear a helmet cam if they don’t put any material from this cam into this video ? 😂
anyone has an answer?
He edited the video, so he props didnt want it.
I guess they made the same mistake like NASA did. And send him out on a mission without an SD Card :D
@@TheWaynester101 It literally says Zach edited the video right at the start

People outside Denmark never believe me but,
When I’m cycling to work I regularly meet the minister of education.
Clive The Führer well, I do believe you. I live in and I’m from Costa Rica, and when you walk downtown San Jose (the capital) you can easily stumble upon most lawmakers and even the president of the country. Not that I like the government ruling right now but I’ve got to admit that it’s a good sign you can encounter politicians and ministers as well so easily.
I believe you. I live in the Netherlands and our minister-president goes to his work by bike 😂
I believe you. I'm from Finland, and our president had to sit on the stairs at a book fair because all the seats in the auditorium were taken. If you don't believe me, just Google "finnish president sitting on stairs".
I live in a third world country and I believe you. I too get to see high ranking officials every time. I don't know what they look like but I can tell from the police escort or black bmws and mercedes' following them.
Clive The Führer i belive you i live in Denmark too at there is nearly more bikes then cars
God dayum, i sense the propa Top Gear vibes from this channel. Keep it up!
Yesss!! More motorcycle vidjahs
I’ve driven through LA a couple times and I hate the traffic. If I lived there, I’d buy a motorcycle again.
I made the same commute by motorcycle going to UCLA daily, it's fast but the stress isn't worth it. Not even an exaggeration, I average 4 close calls a month. What's worse than LA Traffic? LA Drivers.
The guy on the metro didnt have a chance. If they would of start from a location where he would jump into the metro asap he would of won. Lol he was walkimg slow to the metro lol
That wouldn't be all that realistic. Does the subway stop outside your house?
If anything, he only had a chance because they started near a metro station and ended near a metro station. If you went from most spots, you'd have to make transfers, switch to a bus, etc. All these race challenges have to choose a start and finish line to make transit even remotely competitive.
Don't get me wrong, I love transit, but not because it's a fast way to get to your destination.
@@conortobin6180 no but there's a bus stop literally 500 feet away
Conor Tobin hollywood/western station is a 5min walk from my house
And tbf tho that's a lot of time to get work done. Can't be on your laptop while driving or biking, so even though its an extra 10-20 mins it's a much better use of time
I did something like this in Chile a year ago: 40 minutes for buses, 55 minutes for bikes, and 30 minutes for cars in a 8.8km conmute.
But every vehicle has its downsides. With buses you need to know where you are going or you'll get lost (almost all buses are blue) and they can get very crowed. With cars you'll spend more money in maintenance, fuel and parking; and you need a safe place to leave it. Bikes need to be locked if you leave it alone, and you have to drive with caution to avoid being the crashed one.
Here in Denmark the train network has wagons specific for transporting your bike. So you can ride your bike to the train station, ride the train with your bike, and then ride your bike from the train station to your destination.
Its awesome!

This was cool. Make more Donut challenge videos. I think we would all like to see the guys behind the magic that don't have their own shows.
I love it when my Donut media does a little bit of top gear
People say transit is slow but it was only 6 mins slower than driving... that’s actually pretty damn good. If you took into account that you often have to look for parking when you drive, transit might even be faster. That being said, the speed of transit really depends on where you are & where you’re going.
This is actually a really interesting video; i’d like to see a bunch of trials done in different areas of the city to get a better idea of what’s the best option.
Yup I know with all the youtube videos where they do similar things in London the parking problem usually makes the car even worse still both in terms of time and price as parking is rather a sellers market in London. Basically anything else (Bike, Tube, DLR, Overground, Bus etc) even taxis as you don't have to try and find somewhere to dump the thing on arrival beats the car convincingly on both measures.
Seraphina S yeah European cities tend to have super efficient transit. LA was kind of built around the car though, so i’m impressed that transit was only a few minutes slower than the car. I live in a much smaller Canadian city and it takes twice as long to get anywhere on a bus (because we don’t have any rapid transit)
@@Lafv Even in european cities the fastest way to get around is usually a moped. As those are usually allowed to use bicycle infrastructure, so you can bypass the worst traffic jams entirely and they can keep up with cars within city limits because of the speed limit.
I used to commute by moped because it took all of 8 minutes to get from home to work, where it'd take upwards of 40 by car due to traffic. These days I commute on a maxiscooter, so I can't take those shortcuts anymore. But being able to filter through traffic (lane splitting is not legal here, only filtering is) it's still a 12 minute commute because I have to take a longer route. I mean I can physically fit my maxiscooter through the shortcuts, it's just not legal to do so.
And no matter how good public transit is, it never leaves from where you are and it doesn't arrive where you need to be, nor does it take the most efficient route between the two.
William Loudermilk I know, I’ve heard of that before. It happened in a lot of cities, including where I live. And then as a result of everyone switching to cars, massive freeways were put in place everywhere. Especially in the US because of how the federal government offered to pay like 90% of the cost for any interstate highway construction.
@William Loudermilk LA has never had the best public transportation system lol

This was hilarious especially that guy just walking here
Starting a race on the top of the building is so gta energy

*starts walking*
Top gear did this in London, the tube won followed by the bike then the boat, then the car. So from this video I guess the LA metro is crap.
Sun Wukong - My first thoughts as well!
Is that really a surprise
And in Sain-Petersburg,Russia.
Car vs bike vs hover.
Sun Wukong - No. The bike won, then the boat, tube, and the car.

A classic Top Gear challange but in a Donut Media way. It's great. Keep up the good work.
P.S. get up to speed - TVR
Make an Up To Speed special episode about *Top Gear* :D
Before watching the video: I bet trains win. From experience living in NYC- trains are the best way to go, as long as they're frequent enough.
Edit: Raghav just about matched the time without breaking a sweat. With some actual hustle, he would've totally won. The slow walking killed his time- he had to have spent 10 minutes just leaving the parking ramp. I guess in LA, the Metro is only only for people who are chill AF.
And you have to find parking, or be all sweaty and out of breath if you bike. Trains win here, it's just the competition is a bit biased for the other two.
lol
The most ideal is a combo of bike and train. For most American cities, train stops aren’t that frequent and most of the time, your workplace will be a long walk from the station. Just buy a foldable bike and ride it to and from the stations.
3:08 In the UK, that's £200 and half the points on your license right there. Get caught twice and you'd be banned from driving.
Public transport is the winner for me. 12 minutes slower than the bike which is exhausting, and 6 minutes slower than the car which is stressful. It's not even a question for me. I imagine if highway spending in the middle of the 20th century had gone towards public transport infrastructure it'd be more competitive for time, too. Cycling and public transportation are the way of the future. Private car ownership is going to be a tough habit for the US in particular to break, much to the detriment of the environment and the working class.
Sam yesss. I love my car. It’s an amazing luxury. I even think driving is fun. But it’s a terrible way to commute every day.
Yeah, and also while you are riding the metro you can read or watch a movie, that's imposible while driving or biking
Arnulfo Aldaco not impossible, just dangerous.
you can both bike and take public transport.
I use a combination of Uber/Lyft, Metro, and walking. Gets me everywhere I need to go in LA.
Metro = no burning gas and sitting in traffic jams + no sweaty body and tiredness at the end - just 15 mins more than car for 13 miles...... I would argue metro is the best way overall to travel at rush hour :)
Just vibing
oh my gosh this is like some Top Gear kinda race this is awesome
Yes more motorcycle vids!!!
holy shit this is exactly like top gear do more stuff like this
YES PLEASE
Yeah honestly I don't think anyone would mind if they just ripped off more top gear ideas. Obviously many of them are way too expensive, but over the years Top Gear has come up with countless little games and adventures to do with cars that are totally worth revisiting.
Even without the unlimited budget and access to any car they want there's still lots of fun and creative stuff to do.

Your work commute must have a good metro connectivity , I lived in Lawndale and my office was 4.5 miles in El Segundo, right next to LAX and if you used public transport you would have to take a bus and a train plus walking and your total commute time would be about 1 hour and 15 minutes

I want to see this as CAR v Pedal Bike v E-bike v motorcycle v train. It would be interesting to have the other two choices.
Believe me, Public Transport is best way to go home during rush hour.

remember that the train guy wasnt really behind nolan and that he wasnt the one driving. also in two days they are opening a new expansion of the la metro so the metro guy wouldn't of had to make a transfer speeding up his trip. plus he wouldn't have to deal with traffic. cool race tho, love this channel
Yet everyone constantly forgets about the actual fastest mode of transportation: a humble motorcycle.
hear hear!
Small motorcycle or a scooter 125 cc for the win on time & cost.
To be fair, a small scooter makes a terrible transportation choice in most of Southern California.
Most people here work in the city and drive 90 minutes in from the outlying suburbs. That's because nobody but the fabulously wealthy, or somebody who bought their house in 1960, can afford to live in the city.
A small scooter will get you killed, and a motorcycle will get you maimed. A bicycle will you get you to your destination some time in the same month unless you have the health and strength of an Olympian athlete. The train has a schedule where it leaves every hour on the day, twice weekly, when not broken down. The bus comes around every hour unless it's late, then it's route goes in the opposite direction that you need to go. So honestly, seriously, for most people the automobile is the *only* choice.
Raghav looks so happy
😂😂😂😂
I've tested this myself(different city and country) and at best it took me 1hour and 5 minutes by public transport to travel from where I lived and into the city. The distance was 27km/16,77miles.
I spent 45 minutes on a bicycle, and had more than enough time to get showered and ready for work, feeling fresh and ready for the day instead of a train wreck like most.
By car it took me at least 1 hour and 30 minutes, and on motorcycle about 50 min to 1 hour on average.
Best way of transportation in heavy traffic:
-car-
-bike-
-public transportation-
A MOTORCYCLE :D
As fast as a car (but split through traffic), as agility as a bike and more comfortable than a bike (but not a car).
The mustang guy won. He ran over the walker and biker, they were in a crowd. Rip
Lmao😂😂🤣🤭
JPeezus ✔️️ Are those mustangs memes dead memes yet
@@Swag_K1RBY not until they kill everyone who spreads them
"Quit it with the crowd jokes, I don't want to hear them, I've heard them all before
@@brendancross2767 this guy is good. Hearing text.
Smh learn to take a joke. If you don't want to see it, scroll down. It's common sense.
You want the best commute mode?
Buy a foldable bike and use public transport as much as you can. Fast, cheap, good for health and it saves the planet.
I keep a foldable bike (or two, if my wife is with me) in my quite big diesel car I use to commute from suburbs, to save precious time I loose in the traffic jams and looking for a parking slot, also to not wasting fuel. I never thought that I save a planet by it LOL Yes, it is genius thing, especially electric one if you are strong enough to lift it (my wife prefers a normal one).
Or a unicycle.
@@Pandzikizlasu80 Foldable electric i prefer regular electric but I'm sure it would decrease your commute time.
Luis Ramrod Where the fuck you live?
Communist Pootis Birb 😂😂 Fr where is this guy from
Yeah, this beats your normal 1 on 1 host format by a mile.
James: u wanna move to LA but how do u feel with the traffic
Nolan:CMON!!!!
Wtf he just bikes between the cars. No bicycle lanes/bike paths or anything?
thats LA for you
That's why LA is stuck in traffic. There's no efficient way to get around.
That's the case in most of the world. It's certainly how i cycled foryears in bucharest, only recently were there a few bike lanes built.
@@RoScFan same for the UK. My city was just road cycling until the last 3/4 years and as I write this comment they’ve started building bike lanes
@@RoScFan you should see Netherlands denmark or sweden
Some say that his helmet makes him look like a kid trapped in an elevator and that if he had to be any animal in this world, it would be a *buff horse*

All I’m getting out of this is that for a few minutes more, public transport is definitely worth
