🚙 Drive America’s Highways for 4.6 miles northwest along Burkett Flat Road from Greenbrier to Bono, Arkansas — a short country route lined with quiet farmland and wooded ridges.
Burkett Flat Road is a rural connector in Faulkner County, Arkansas, running from the intersection with AR-225 near Greenbrier northwest to its junction with AR-285 at Bono. Though just under five miles in length, this drive offers a pleasant glimpse into the countryside that characterizes the foothills of central Arkansas. Unlike major highways that funnel traffic quickly between towns, Burkett Flat Road serves more as a local link, tying together communities while maintaining a peaceful, two-lane character.
The route begins outside of Greenbrier, a growing community along U.S. 65. From there, the drive moves northwest, quickly trading the bustle of the main highway for a quiet, pastoral setting. Motorists will notice a mix of farmland, small clusters of homes, and occasional patches of dense woods, typical of the terrain in this part of the state. Rolling hills add some variety to the landscape, and depending on the season, the roadside can be dotted with blooming wildflowers or shaded by stretches of hardwood trees.
Approaching the small community of Bono, Burkett Flat Road terminates at AR-285. While not a long journey, the road reflects the character of many secondary routes in Arkansas—roads that knit together the rural fabric of the state and give travelers a sense of place beyond the interstates and primary highways. Whether used as a connector for local traffic or as part of a back-road detour, Burkett Flat Road provides a glimpse of everyday Arkansas scenery.

![Interstate 55: Festus to St. Louis | Real Roads, Real Drives [Revisited]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/J_IqzhST5XQ/mqdefault.jpg "Interstate 55: Festus to St. Louis | Real Roads, Real Drives [Revisited]
🚙 Drive America’s Highways for 34 miles north along Interstate 55 from Festus to St. Louis, Missouri — from suburban Jefferson County into the heart of the city.
Travel north on Interstate 55 from the U.S. Route 67 interchange in Festus to eastbound Interstate 44 in St. Louis on a steadily developing drive through Jefferson County and the southern St. Louis metropolitan area. The video begins near Festus and Crystal City, where I-55 serves as the primary north-south highway connecting communities along the Mississippi River corridor with the St. Louis region. Leaving the US 67 interchange, the interstate continues through a mixture of wooded hills, commercial development, residential areas, and open land that reflects the gradual transition from the outer metropolitan fringe toward the more densely developed suburbs.
North of Festus, Interstate 55 passes through communities such as Herculaneum, Pevely, Barnhart, Imperial, and Arnold. This section of the highway remains busy but generally open, with long stretches of divided interstate bordered by rolling terrain and established neighborhoods. The route provides access to numerous local roads and commercial districts while continuing to function as one of the principal travel corridors between southeastern Missouri and St. Louis. As the drive approaches Arnold, development becomes more continuous, and the surrounding landscape increasingly takes on the character of a major metropolitan area.
Continuing north, I-55 crosses the Meramec River and enters St. Louis County, where traffic, interchanges, and roadside development become noticeably more concentrated. The interstate passes through the southern suburbs near Mehlville and Lemay before reaching the city of St. Louis. Along this portion of the drive, the roadway is lined with a changing mixture of commercial properties, residential neighborhoods, industrial areas, and transportation infrastructure. The route also provides connections to major local streets and highways serving South County and the southern sections of the city.
After entering St. Louis, Interstate 55 continues through established urban neighborhoods while approaching the central portion of the city. The skyline and denser street network gradually become more visible as the highway nears downtown. The video concludes at the interchange with eastbound Interstate 44, where traffic can continue toward downtown St. Louis, the Mississippi River, and connections with other major regional highways. From the wooded hills near Festus to the urban landscape of St. Louis, this drive captures the full transition from an outer Missouri community into the state’s largest metropolitan area.

![Interstate 22: Birmingham, Alabama to Tupelo, Mississippi | Real Roads, Real Drives [Repost]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/JxuPVsbgaMw/mqdefault.jpg "Interstate 22: Birmingham, Alabama to Tupelo, Mississippi | Real Roads, Real Drives [Repost]
🚙 Drive Americas Highways for 128 miles west along Interstate 22 from Birmingham, Alabama to Tupelo, Mississippi 🛣️
Interstate 22 serves as a vital east–west corridor linking Birmingham, Alabama, with Tupelo, Mississippi, and ultimately forms part of the larger route toward Memphis. This stretch of highway follows the path of the historic U.S. Highway 78, which has long connected northern Mississippi with central Alabama. The drive offers travelers a smooth and efficient route across rolling hills, river valleys, and stretches of rural countryside while tying together important population centers and economic hubs.
The video begins in Birmingham at the eastern terminus of I-22, where the highway meets Interstate 65. Heading northwest, the route quickly departs the urban environment of Birmingham’s metro area and transitions into a more rural landscape characterized by tree-lined hills and small towns. Along the way, the interstate parallels the historic corridor of U.S. 78, serving communities such as Jasper, Hamilton, and other towns scattered across northern Alabama. After crossing into Mississippi, I-22 continues westward, maintaining its steady pace through forested areas and open farmland until reaching Tupelo. Here, the route concludes at the junction with U.S. 45, a major north–south highway linking the region with destinations as far north as Corinth and as far south as Meridian.
This segment of Interstate 22 not only provides an important link for commerce and regional travel but also offers drivers a comfortable journey through the natural scenery of northern Alabama and northeastern Mississippi. The corridor reflects modern infrastructure built on top of historic routes, ensuring continuity for travelers across the Deep South.

![Arkansas Highway 9: Crows to Morrilton | Real Roads, Real Drives [Repost]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/KRWP9hNsjh4/mqdefault.jpg "Arkansas Highway 9: Crows to Morrilton | Real Roads, Real Drives [Repost]
🚙 Drive Americas Highways for 46 miles north along Arkansas Highway 9 from Crows to Morrilton, Arkansas.
The drive along Arkansas Highway 9 from Crows to Morrilton begins at the intersection with Arkansas Highway 5 in the small community of Crows, south of Paron. Traveling northward, the route quickly settles into a rural rhythm, winding through the wooded hills and farmland of western Saline County. Passing through the community of Paron, Highway 9 follows a scenic path marked by rolling terrain and stretches of pine and hardwood forest, with occasional clearings that offer views across the valley.
Continuing north, the highway reaches Williams Junction, where connections can be made to routes heading east toward Little Rock or north toward Perryville. From here, the road enters Perry County and climbs gently through the Ouachita foothills toward Thornburg. Beyond Thornburg, the terrain begins to level out as the highway approaches Perryville, the county seat. In Perryville, Highway 9 intersects with other important local routes and serves as a main thoroughfare through the heart of town, passing near the courthouse square and community landmarks.
North of Perryville, the drive transitions into the Arkansas River Valley. Passing through the communities of Perry and Oppelo, Highway 9 provides access to outdoor recreation areas including Petit Jean State Park just west of Oppelo. The route concludes as it enters Morrilton, where Highway 9 meets East Harding Street, which also carries the designation of Highway 9 Business. This final stretch ties the rural corridor together, linking the wooded uplands of Saline County with the river valley community of Morrilton.

🚙 Watch as we Drive Americas Highways for 44 miles east along Oklahoma Highway 51 from Stillwater to Mannford 🛣️
The drive from Stillwater to Mannford begins at the intersection of U.S. Route 177 and Oklahoma Highway 51 in Stillwater. Turning onto OK-51 from US-177, we head east on 6th Street towards the edge of town on a 4-lane urban highway.
Leaving Stillwater, we soon cross the intersection with OK-108 as we continue east towards Mannford. Just before the town of Yale, we cross the intersection with OK-18 before entering town on Chicago Ave. Passing through Yale in a blink, and missing the Jim Thorpe House, we continue east along OK-51. Entering the Muscogee (Creek) Nation shortly after leaving Yale, cross intersection with OK-99 before continuing east on highway 51 towards Tulsa.
Entering Mannford at the intersection with Oklahoma Highway 48, we pass through town on Tower Boulevard, crossing Keystone Lake before ending the video at the interchange with Oklahoma Highway 151.

![Arkansas Highway 46: Sheridan to Leola | Real Roads, Real Drives [Revisited]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/KyK61mGZg1U/mqdefault.jpg "Arkansas Highway 46: Sheridan to Leola | Real Roads, Real Drives [Revisited]
🚙 Drive America’s Highways for about 15 miles southwest along Arkansas Highway 46 from Sheridan to Leola, Arkansas — quiet pine woods and a detour to historic Jenkins Ferry.
This short but classic Grant County run starts at US 270 in downtown Sheridan and follows Arkansas Highway 46 through working timberland and low, flat river country toward Leola. The video begins with small-town cues—local businesses thinning out, school zones and a couple of low-speed stretches—before settling into a steady rural rhythm. AR-46 is a simple two-lane corridor with modest shoulders, gentle curves, and a few mild elevation changes as it rolls southeast. Expect stretches of planted pines, open pasture, and roadside ponds, with the occasional logging truck or farm rig sharing the route. As the miles click by, traffic lightens and the scenery opens into the broad Saline River bottom, where the highway straightens and the forest closes in just a bit. Wayfinding is straightforward: stay on 46, watch for county road signs, and enjoy the easy pace.
Midway through the drive, plan a brief side trip to Jenkins Ferry State Park—signed via a short spur off AR-46—where a quiet riverside clearing preserves one of the Civil War’s Red River Campaign battle sites. Even without stepping far from the roadway, the park’s interpretive markers and shaded tables make an ideal pause before the final leg. Back on 46, the landscape remains calm and green as the route angles toward Leola, with long forward views punctuated by creek crossings and utility corridors. The drive concludes at the eastern junction with AR-229 in Leola, a small community that still feels connected to the woods and the river. As end-to-end corridor coverage, this segment shows AR-46 exactly as locals know it: a practical connector with a surprising bit of history tucked just off the pavement.

![Interstate 35: Edmond to Oklahoma City ~ Oklahoma | Real Roads, Real Drives [Remastered]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/LAJLnQTmbNc/mqdefault.jpg "Interstate 35: Edmond to Oklahoma City ~ Oklahoma | Real Roads, Real Drives [Remastered]
🚙 Drive America’s Highways for 8 miles south along Interstate 35 from OK-66/US-77 in Edmond to Interstate 44 WB in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma — a modern urban approach into the heart of the metro.
Interstate 35 between Edmond and Oklahoma City forms one of the busiest commuter corridors in central Oklahoma, carrying traffic from the northern suburbs directly toward the state’s largest urban core. The drive begins at the junction with OK-66 and US-77 on the south side of Edmond, where the road transitions from a suburban expressway into a major interstate facility. From here, I-35 angles southwest through a corridor defined by commercial districts, office parks, and rapidly developing neighborhoods. Sound walls, updated interchanges, and widening projects reflect the continuous growth of the Edmond–OKC region, and the route serves as a primary connector for residents heading toward downtown, Midtown, and the medical district. Despite its suburban beginnings, this stretch of highway already carries a metropolitan feel, with closely spaced exits serving major arterial routes such as Memorial Road and Hefner Road.
As the interstate continues south, the surroundings become unmistakably urban. The highway passes important crossroads such as Interstate 235 and U.S. 77, funneling traffic toward central Oklahoma City, while overhead guide signs begin directing drivers to the state capitol complex and key cultural districts. The alignment gradually lowers as it approaches the “I-44 curve,” where the roadway bends southwest to join Interstate 44, forming one of the most important freeway-to-freeway interchanges in the region. This convergence marks a transition point for travelers: westbound I-44 serves the airport, the Will Rogers World corridor, and western suburbs, while eastbound I-44/OKC’s Belle Isle area lies just beyond the split. The video concludes at the westbound ramp for Interstate 44, completing a concise but essential segment of Oklahoma’s central transportation network. Though short, the drive illustrates how quickly the landscape shifts from Edmond’s suburban edge into Oklahoma City’s fully developed urban environment, offering a clear picture of the region’s interconnected freeway system.
Note: This footage was recorded in 2017. The corridor has changed significantly since then due to ongoing development throughout the Edmond–OKC metro; however, the highway itself and the exits shown in this video remain largely the same.

![U.S. Route 160: Tuba City to Kayenta - Arizona | See Americas Highways [Remastered/Repost]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/MiPGSLMe8GY/mqdefault.jpg "U.S. Route 160: Tuba City to Kayenta - Arizona | See Americas Highways [Remastered/Repost]
🚙 Drive America’s Highways for 82 miles east along U.S. Route 160 from Tuba City to Kayenta, Arizona — a desert highway lined with mesas, buttes, and quiet Navajo Nation communities.
The journey begins in Tuba City, where U.S. 160 officially starts at its junction with U.S. 89. Almost immediately, the road passes the intersection with Arizona State Route 264 before curving northeast across the high desert plateau. This part of the drive carries travelers through the Navajo Nation, with long stretches of open roadway framed by red rock formations and distant mesas that set the tone for the entire route.
Continuing east, U.S. 160 passes through the community of Tonalea and shortly after intersects with Arizona State Route 98 — a junction known for its convenience stop, where travelers can fuel up before venturing further into the desert. Beyond this point, the landscape shifts slightly with hints of old mining activity before reaching Tsegi, a small settlement surrounded by sandstone cliffs. The road here is a reminder of both the human and natural history that shaped this corridor.
The final approach to Kayenta is quieter and more open, with flat desert land stretching to the horizon, broken only by mesas rising in the distance. The drive concludes near the junction with U.S. 163, the highway that famously leads north toward Monument Valley. While the last few miles are subdued, the wide skies and subtle changes in the desert scenery capture the character of northeastern Arizona’s highways.
