The co-drivers view: Trip to Italy

In this part of the co-drivers view Guitigefilmpjes visits Italy in the fall of 2010. We drive down from northern Germany towards Munich, cutting through Austria at Innbruck and then drive onto the Brenner Pass through the Alps into Italy.

Southern part of the route

The first video is made while en route in Austria, passing the city of Innsbruck and driving through roadworks:



The following two video's show the Brenner Pass through the Alps, the first one the Austrian side & the Austrian-Italian border at Brenner (Brennero), the second video shows the Italian side of the Brenner Pass and gives a nice overview of the Alps.

Driving through Italy:

- A1 (E35) Rome - Firenze (near Valdichiana)
- A1 (E35) Firenze - Bologna (near Sasso Marconi)

The co-drivers view: Police escort in the Hague

A video of a military column being escorted by the dutch military police (Koninklijke Marrechaussee) through the dutch city of the Hague.

In order to move the column undisrupted through the city and traffic, the motorcyclists close every intersection (see minute 0:26, 2:00, 2:45 and 3:34). In order to keep up with the column, they overtake it at high speeds to secure the next intersection (see minute 1:30).
This allows the column to keep moving without disruptions at a steady speed.
