      It's still beautiful, but its not as peaceful and relaxing as it once was.

    Dude was in a hurry, eh? 55 through Trout Creek, passed on a solid yellow at :40s. ;) So nice to see though. Was a few years before I was born but travelled those roads a lot as a kid! I see a 60MPH sign in Westbank, so maybe Trout Creek wasn't reduced speed yet. Was hoping to see a glimpse of Old McDonald's Farm or Bedrock City, but I guess they weren't up yet either? ;) Thanks!

      We have learned that the driver was instructed not to let vehicles linger in front of the vehicle as they would obstruct the view of the road, which explains some of the speed and passing. Bedrock City would be cool to see, wouldn't it? Thanks for your comment. Glad you enjoyed it!

      The speed and passing seems really standard really not much different from how most locals drive in the BC interior. Speed limits seemed different then too faster in some places than they are now slower in other areas where theyve been since increased because of upgrades or a town dying or relocating.

      Obviously couldnt go full out on camera either but I dont think "Flying Phil" would have been very happy to see the photolog driver dawdling.

    Wow, unspoiled land where the never-ending strip mall otherwise known as West Kelowna is and there's almost no traffic! In JULY!!

      Yes I also noticed the extremely stark contrast between the unrecognizably intact forest, tree-dotted orchards and grassland of yesteryears, vs today's sprawl encroachment in W. Kelowna/Westbank.

      I found the three dots at the top right of the screen,touch them and you get a box with play back speed as one of the options. Hope this helps!

    Slow speed in top right hand corner. I was 11, didn't do road trips till I was allowed to go with Aunt Vi in her Herald Triumph convertible. Grew up on a farm in Alberta, my parents never took vacations with us.

    Wow, so weird not to see the connector overpass. And Westbank practically didn’t exist lol

    Did anyone else still hear the sound of the lift span as the car went over it on the bridge into Kelowna?

    penticton to kelowna in 6 min 31 seconds! any way to slow down the video?

    • @MinistryofTranBC
      @MinistryofTranBC  9 років тому

      garfunkel Hi Garfunkel! This video has actually been slowed down to 30% of its original speed if you can believe it! You can pause on any one scene you find interesting if that helps!

    • @socialex
      @socialex 9 років тому

      +garfunkel its frame by frame so slowing it down doesn't help much (for car spotting) but if you search "how to slow down videos on youtube" on your search bar a video comes up that explains it pretty well. its just changing your version of youtube to a different arrangement.

    • @MinistryofTranBC
      @MinistryofTranBC  9 років тому

      There is a gear icon on the bottom right of the UA-cam screen. If you click on it you can view it at different speeds. Hope that this helps. Thanks for watching!

    What's the point! He blew right past my childhood, corner of Harvey (aka 97) and Water. In 1968 the aquatic center burned down.. that was the end of Kelowna's golden era. It's since become an international hell hole stinking of nouveau riche. 😆
