Rodovia Dos Imigrantes Highway in Sao Paulo Brazil

The busiest highway of Brazil Rodovia Dos Imigrantes is a highway in the state of São Paulo, Brazil. The beautiful highway connects the city of São Paulo to the Atlantic coast and with the seaside cities of São Vicente and Praia Grande. The highway has 44 viaducts, 7 bridges, and 11 tunnels, along its 58.5 kilometer stretch. It is extremely busy at weekends, as over one million vehicles commonly cross the 60 kilometers run, separating the city of Sao Paulo  from the sea.

Rodovia Dos Imigrantes is one the most daring feats of Brazilian highway engineering, with really long tunnels and high strutting six-lane bridges constructed over the tropical rain forest which covers the steep faces of the Serra do Mar, the cliff range that separates the São Paulo plateau from the seaside lowlands. The highway was inaugurated in 1974, is nowadays busier due to its building standards, which license higher speed limits, and its more direct path to the cities of Santos and Guarujá, the northern coast with Bertioga, as well as the southern coast with cities Praia Grande, Mongaguá, and Itanhaém.

The highway Rodovia dos Imigrantes was so named as a way to remember the contribution of immigrants to the cultural, economic, and social development of Brazil. It is managed by a state concession to the private company, Ecovias, which also maintains Rodovia Anchieta; it is, therefore, a toll road. The two carriageways of Rodovia dos Imigrantes are both fully reversible and traffic is managed to flow either bidirectionally or unidirectionally, simply depending on demand. In the unidirectional mode, the opposing traffic is diverted to Rodovia Anchieta.

Traffic Jam Stuck in Belgium Forest For 70 Years

Chatillion is a small village in Belgium, actually to be home of vintage abandoned and beautiful rusty cars graveyard. This “Car Graveyard” has since been cleaned up, but photographer Theo van Vliet had the chance to explore the forest and photograph the cars beforehand.

These frightening apocalyptic photos are not a view of “Walking Dead”, they were actually taken at one of the biggest car cemeteries in the world the Chatillion Car Graveyard, Belgium. According to an urban legend these cars were left behind by US soldiers after World War II, who could not ship them back to the United States due to the high cost of having all those cars shipped was way too expensive, so they decided to hide them in a forest until they could come back and save them.

Finally the ranking officers decided to leave all the cars in Belgium and these cars were driven up a hill, one by one, nicely parked and somehow hidden from the outside world. Once back home in the US, the soldiers who wanted to retrieve their car had to take personal responsibility for all costs of the shipping but unfortunately not a single car was retrieved.

But on the other side, the local inhabitants totally deny the facts and say it is simply an old car dump of vehicles made after the WWII. At one point there were four car graveyards in Chatillion with as many as 500 retro vehicles. Unluckily, most of the cars were stolen by car collectors or removed by the locals and due to environmental issues the whole graveyards was cleared in 2010.
