  • There's nothing fun about a long drive on California Highway 99, but if you'd like to experience it without the mayhem of traffic and insane drivers, kick back and enjoy this video of the drive from Modesto, through Merced, to Fresno.

    I made this trip in June 2018. Video shot with a Brinno TLC-200 Pro time-lapse camera mounted on my roof with a homemade magnetic case. I travel with two Brinno cameras - one facing forward, the other in reverse. Sometimes the reverse camera captures better video (fewer raindrops and bugs hit the rear-view lens).

    At the 12:09 mark there is a pine tree and palm tree in the center divider among the oleanders. That is the supposed to be the dividing point between Northern California and Southern California.

      Highway 99 is better than Highway 5 for me Because it's a lot of small towns and Gas stations that can you buy food for your trip along this Highway 😊

    I was under the impression that this part of California would be high hills and deep valleies, being so close to Yosemite and all. So of course I'm a bit surprised at how flat it is 🤔🧐😄!
    Thanks for the eye-opening video, it is very informative! 😁 (& a lot of fun)!

    Wish that CA-99 will become future interstate 7, since there is no more CA-7 from Calexico at the Mexican border to I-8. Now it is Imperial County Route S32. I-7 should be even 300 miles in length from I-5 in Wheeler Ridge (about 25 miles of Bakersfield) to I-80 in Downtown Sacramento, and they are adding 128 more miles of I-7 from Downtown Sacramento to rejoin at I-5 in Red Bluff for a total of 428 miles. There will be another single digit interstate highway and it is future interstate 9, in Eastern Washington from I-82 in Kennewick to I-90 in Ritzville for about 100 miles. I-9 will also be proposal interstate going across Central Oregon, since there is no Oregon State Route 9 anywhere in the state, so I-9 will running concurrently with US-97 as well as Northern California at I-5 in Weeds. NOTE: Both I-7 and I-9 will between I-5 and future I-11. I-9 will serve 3 states and they are: California, Oregon, and Washington. Future I-11 will serve in 4 states and they are: Arizona, Nevada, Oregon, and Idaho and each of them are the fastest growing states, even 40 years from now.

    You drove from Modesto all the way to Fresno to go to the Walmart near Herndon and Ingram?! Hope you found great deals. The Walmart on Clovis and Herndon avenue is nicer. :)
