Driving NYC : Astoria, Queens to Bensonhurst, Brooklyn via I-278 Brooklyn-Queens Expressway

I take a drive in New York City from Astoria, Queens to Bensonhurst, Brooklyn via I-278 Brooklyn-Queens Expressway (BQE) and Gowanus Expressway. This highway is known to locals to have lots of traffic and is the source of much frustration. It passes through many neighborhoods such as Woodside, Elmhurst, Maspeth, Greenpoint, Williamsburg, DUMBO, Downtown Brooklyn, Brooklyn Heights, Cobble Hill, Carrol Gardens, Sunset Park, and Bay Ridge.

Thanks AK, the roads looked pretty decent, I use to travel from NJ to Forest Hills and the roads were a mess, that was in the 90’s 😊

The highway wasn't to bad this time round, dispite a car breaking down . But the EQE was abit scary, let's hope they can build a new and safer ulternative some day. Thanks for the tour AK .

Lane cutter at the end of the exits whenever there's a traffic drives me crazy.

Every time I look at driving in the United States, I feel very comfortable. When driving in Taiwan, there will be traffic jams.
