Before everything got replaced by apartments and soulless buildings, Route 1 was everything. Mini golf. Batting cages. Arcades. And a 20 foot orange dinosaur watching over it all. We didn’t know how good we had it 🥺 At some point, that dinosaur watched over us playing mini golf one last time… and nobody knew it 😭 #saugus #saugusma #route1saugus #massachusetts

One way traffic delays at BigSur!! . If you're heading to Big Sur, remember that the "reopened" highway still has a few tricks up its sleeve! 🛣️ We hit one-way traffic signals near reconstruction zones, but when the waiting room looks like this, you really can't complain 🌊🐄 . 📅 March 30, 2026 📍​One-way traffic at Point Sur State Historic Park!! . ​. #BigSur #Highway1 #CaliforniaTravel #RoadTripTips #PacificCoastHighway

📍 Highway 401 — The Busiest Highway in the World! 🚗🚚 Did you know that Highway 401 in Ontario, Canada isn’t just a major road — it’s one of the busiest highways on the planet? 🙌 Known officially as the Macdonald–Cartier Freeway, this massive route stretches roughly 828 km (514 mi) from Windsor in the west all the way to the Ontario–Québec border in the east, connecting major cities like Toronto, Mississauga, London, and Kingston.  💥 Traffic & Volume: 👉 Around the Greater Toronto Area (GTA), the 401 sees incredible traffic volumes — in its busiest sections, over 450,000 vehicles travel it daily, and on some days that number tops 500,000 vehicles! 🚗💨  🚦 How Many Lanes? 👉 To handle all that traffic, parts of Highway 401 expand up to 18 lanes wide — that’s 9 lanes in each direction in places where collector and express lanes are included. Even with that scale, congestion is still common during peak times.  🛣️ Whether you’re commuting across town or driving from coast to coast, the 401 is a major backbone for travel and trade in Canada — a road that truly never sleeps! 🇨🇦 #Highway401 #Ontario #Canada #WorldsBusiestHighway #TorontoTraffic #RoadTrip #CommuterLife #OntarioHighways #TravelCanada

Highway 1 through Big Sur is now fully open to traffic for the first time in three years! The area known as Regent’s Slide, which was wiped out by a massive landslide, reopened on Wednesday, allowing motorists to travel uninterrupted from Monterey County to San Luis Obispo County once again.

Highway 1 through Big Sur to Monterey is open and right now is the best time to go. Spring into summer brings some of the best weather, plus the coastal views mixed with wildflowers make the drive even more unreal. There are so many great stops along the way and you can take this route all the way down to San Diego or head north toward San Francisco. From LA, we made our way up to Monterey stopping in Solvang, Morro Bay, Cambria, Paso Robles, and Big Sur. We did it in five days but this is easily a trip you can stretch into two weeks with even more California gems along the way. This is your sign to finally plan that California road trip. Have you done this drive yet? 👋🏽 Hi! We’re Danny and Drea, new parents holding onto adventures while navigating our new way of life. Follow along @juarezmeetsworld if you love all things travel with a side of lifestyle and family life!

Chronicles on the N1 - Vol. 1 ✅ I am bringing you a new segment to Carvogue. The N1 is a bridge between Cape Town and Polokwane, however the portion between Pretoria and Joburg shows the most density. Which means, a lot of weird and wonderful is occasionally spotted along the route 🚗 With that said, it’s time to share the random sightings on a daily basis to bring a bit of a mix into this page. Turn that volume up and enjoy this interesting mashup from weird cars to crazy sightings! 🤯🤣 #Carvogue #N1 #Carspotting #SouthAfrica
