In response to requests for a look at Las Vegas from the viewpoint of a resident I tried to shoot a video of what traffic on The Strip is like on weekend.

One of the problems in Las Vegas is what I consider terrible signage. The signs are small and ill placed and there aren't enough of them. Of particular note is the fact that traffic lanes suddenly become turning lanes without adequate warning, and on this day I found myself in one, so this video is much shorter than I intended. I will take you on other car trips in Las Vegas and make certain not to have this happen again.

Still, you do get a bit of a look at some of the casinos and the traffic on a Sunday, early in the afternoon, going south on The Strip, and then west on Flamingo Road.

If you're a web cam fan I have the link to the Las Vegas traffic cams on the sidebar so you can see some live action whenever you want.

You can actually view a newer web cam of The Strip and Flamingo Road here, and this link will take you to a map of the "Freeway and Arterial System of Transportation" or "FAST", where you can check out many other Las Vegas highway web cams.

This service I believe is provided by "Google" and, like all web cams, Las Vegas included, is not guaranteed to be functional at all times for any of a number of reasons.
