Just stumbled onto this. I made that same drive from Sylmar to Sunset Blvd about every weekend to get to Santa Monica beach. I left in 95 when it was still respectable. You couldn't pay me to move back...
Excellent video. I’ve been to this part of LA many times and typically it is immaculate and the freeways are indeed packed. You make a good point about today’s psychology in people, no dignity, no respect and it seems to be growing by leaps and bounds unfortunately.
Lets keep it going John Jon shares and shows us the real roads of Southern California, can’t wait to see you in central California stay with me stay with me John Jon
John, you started in Encino, drove to Bel Air, then drove back and ended the video in Sherman Oaks. Great video, beautiful day, but you got to get your destination points right.
Rome had a big aquaduct bringing all the water into the city. The barbarians knocked a part of it down and cut off the water supply. Then they could take it over.
Thank you for always showing us Cali though!!! Could you show More of Granada Hills, Northridge and North Hills? I grew up around there and have heard that it has gone to shit. It makes me so sad.
I made this very drive for 40 years. Santa Monica to Encino. It's always been trashy. The only thing different is there are more lanes and more traffic. Although, Covid has helped to decrease traffic. This section of the 405 is now a double ended colon....
@@offplanetevent he lies. He also makes fun of people wearing masks in a pandemic. Its all you need to know about his character. And he's afraid to show la in regular hours too
Yes....you are right....moral decay that is what we are witnessing and have been witnessing for some time. In my opinion. The root of the fall of the Roman empire was moral decay I remember my old history teacher lecturing.
This is unregulated, free market Capitalism. Politicians pocketing taxpayer money is part of the game when there is little oversight and regulation. I don't like it, but it is what it is.
Some one said in your last vid "hey That guy has his personal stuff in his bag", Yea his porno mags and meth pipes, oil, empty baggie's meth ones', and rubber gloves' .
The roads in Oklahoma are worse than that. I’ve been gone since 2001. It’s always been messy and there’s always been graffiti but it is getting worse and I don’t understand how or when people get up there to graffiti that stuff! I always wondered that.
Oh boy...long lines. Johnny's pastrami's next door as well. I remember buying a johnnys for the first time and only eating half and saving the other 1/2 for the next day; it was still delicious.
@@johnjon6159 That word ghetto has many meanings, also those people who are homeless, and those who in live in trailers have character , and in their immediate area amongst them is not trash as you like to say. That's become a sort of stereotype about homeless people that on their person or whatever they have ,has absolutely no value that's a lie, I personally know homeless people who have laptops that work , cellphones ,tablets and the list goes on.
Your friend must be blind! There are literally 100s of current news articles, news videos and TH-cam videos showing what a garbage dump LA and most of California has become.
Wake -up call..Sometimes its time to move....I didnt want to as I lived next to the pier and was happy in my bubble..That bubble burst..So I moved somewhere less expensive still close to the ocean and have woods and creeks...It is not by any means more expensive.The only thing you have to adjust to is "what you wear or how you look" really dosent matter as much as 'WHO YOU ARE AS PERSON'..

Nice to see graffiti on the highway again. Reminds me of the 90s

Excellent video. I’ve been to this part of LA many times and typically it is immaculate and the freeways are indeed packed. You make a good point about today’s psychology in people, no dignity, no respect and it seems to be growing by leaps and bounds unfortunately.
Kool video this is great I don’t have to leave my lounge room to see LA 👍🏻🇦🇺
They used to have inmates pick up the trash along the freeways but now I don’t know why they aren’t doing that now.
Stay safe out there man! Thanks for the content(:
Man, it's so sad to see American like this , thanks John Jon for the reality check spreading worldwide !

JonJon. how does the Highway Patrol not see the overhead sign being graffitied?

Now that a Big Fat lie. Let's see the video! Check mate...
@@johnjon6159 I don't do videos. Don't be an ass John. Why would I lie?
@@johnjon6159 And 90% of the sound walls were done in the last 10 years. Check Mate....
@@offplanetevent he lies.
He also makes fun of people wearing masks in a pandemic.
Its all you need to know about his character.
And he's afraid to show la in regular hours too
Where lucky to have you out there telling us the truth keep trucking.
How about Valencia? Used to live there in the late seventies. Is that area succumbing to this as well?
to be fair i thought you yanks were shite drivers but some decent driving there.. keep up the great reporting fella :)
The 405 freeway
Yes....you are right....moral decay that is what we are witnessing and have been witnessing for some time. In my opinion. The root of the fall of the Roman empire was moral decay I remember my old history teacher lecturing.

It's overegulated cronie Capitalism and Anarcho Tyranny.
San Diego's not too far behind, "IT" is on its way..
My guy gives zero fu**s. Filming while driving, and stopping on the freeeay to get the shot. Keep it going!
Yes. Thanks JOHN
JJ, when you leave California any idea where you will go?
He is not leaving lol....
Hi John TY for driving I ALWAYS stay with you!!❤❤🙏😇
Ddaaaam we have are work cut out for us keep it rolling John jon
Stayin alive on the 405.
Heeerrrrrrre's JON jon ! 💚🤘😎👌💨☕
The roads look like they are poorly maintained.
I've been on the 405 before.
JohnJon, great video as usual but I cringe when you stop on the freeways 😬🇬🇧
Imagine what I do! Thanks for staying with me; it means a ton.
Stay safe out there!
Adjacent like monterey and 101 San Jose CA.
Some one said in your last vid "hey That guy has his personal stuff in his bag", Yea his porno mags and meth pipes, oil, empty baggie's meth ones', and rubber gloves' .
How is it that we see all the graffiti in your drives ,but we never see it being done by anyone ! Don't catch anybody ?
Next we have to ask John Jon to go to Washington DC to show us all the corruption going on there!
It's only bad when you're going 90 and you hit a piece of tire and almost spin out and die.
Used to be all orange groves and ranches
1:58 look at the road this is all over the place in California.
The roads in Oklahoma are worse than that. I’ve been gone since 2001. It’s always been messy and there’s always been graffiti but it is getting worse and I don’t understand how or when people get up there to graffiti that stuff! I always wondered that.
Maybe they attach their spray can to a drone!
I know there's not much decay, but could you go back to Calabasas? Like in town?
Why are people so intent on doing graffiti , especially since it's unintelligible ( and illegal ) ?
Gangs. It's their language.
Lots of cracks on the freeways!
Earth tremors. Rog.
John jon should have went to Tito's tacos for lunch! 😋 😂
Oh boy...long lines. Johnny's pastrami's next door as well. I remember buying a johnnys for the first time and only eating half and saving the other 1/2 for the next day; it was still delicious.
So did it look this bad this time last year prior to the COVID shut down?
Jon Jon Got DanG Tagger,s B.L.M. Sheesh 🙄 Tha New 🆕 Dirty 🗑️ Trashed L.A.
Jon jones voice sounds like a bailsbondsman or a used car salesman talking.
Jon Jones the UFC fighter
I wonder why, with ALL the places they can set up, they insist on setting up in the MOST dangerous places??
Jon, I think Ralph Webb and my old partner Jamal White, aka Douglas Smith shot that guy in Hollywood and took Lady Gaga's dogs.
Sthay with me
The freeway looks pretty rough, what are they doing with the tax dollars?
French Laundry & Free Crack!
The depression of 2020.
Lol he thinks the rich care about some spots of graffiti on a freeway Sound wall.
Like that affects their property values
Are those "roads" or "trails"? Pay more taxes y'all!
Johnjon why dont you stay on this freeway till it takes you to a Republican state, and then donate all your things back home to charity........
Start cleaning your ghetto up. Get to Work!

My friend is in LA right now and says everything looks good so I don't know who is telling the truth
Yeah, why believe video when you can listen to hearsay!
@@johnjon6159 lol then again she is in beverly hills and malibu only lol

Everything looks good when you are stoned out of your gourd.
Your friend is obviously living in a bubble
