Weekday night drive through downtown Los Angeles on my way to Santa Monica. Los Angeles host 50 million tourists a year! That's roughly 1 million people a week coming in to Los Angeles all year! So without all these visitors, it gets quiet. Video starts downtown and ends at the Santa Monica Pier. I left the highway footage in to show how expansive the city is.
