Running on Empty
Ross Ching created the above video by combining a large number of time-lapse still photos and masking out the cars. It’s really cool to see L.A. with no cars in it; all that’s needed to complete the picture is a bunch of bicyclists to fill up those empty roads.

Just love these “imagine that” videos. Thanks for sharing. :-)
Awesome!!
Absolutely awesome….imagine how quiet it would be!
Actually it looks more like one of those end of the world movies where everyone dies. No only are there no cars but also no people
The emptiness poignantly features the excess of concrete and asphalt we devote to our cars.

I thought the same thing; my first impression was dystopian. The tilt-shift shot with the playing field in the background was an exception, though.
Like Eddie, I’m amazed at the amount of concrete dedicated to moving people in 1-person vehicles. What a waste.
In my fantasy I’d remove the asphalt.
I can only imagine the horror of sharing that highway in summer with a throng of cyclists on that empty road. No thank you.
Buy used bikes!
