Wakefield to Brigg in less than 7 Minutes.

Recently, I had to drive from Wakefield to Brigg due to work, and I thought it might be a bit of fun to film it and speed up the results to reduce a 1 hour, 10 minute journey in a truck down to just 6 minutes, 40 seconds. I then over laid the film with waltz of the flowers by Tchaikovsky.
 
There wasn't much notable in the way of scenery as the camera was forward facing, so here's a few notable points in time along the film:
 
Trinity Walk Shopping Centre, Wakefield 0.03
M62 Motorway: 0.59
Ferrybridge Power Station: 1.35
M18 Motorway 3.15
M180 Motorway 4.05
A18 Junction 6.08
 
The start of the film shows the currently redeveloped Kirkgate A61 roundabout in Wakefield and then follows a route up past Pinderfields and through Stanley to the M62 at junction 30. Once on the motorway, there were roadworks until after junction 32, but after that, it was a straight-forward drive through Yorkshire and North Lincolnshire to Brigg.
