Riding my motorized bicycle, keeping up with traffic on the Highway

There are no bike lanes and this is the shortest route to my destination so I have no choice but to take this highway. The highway I have to take is about 10 kilometers. And I don't have to pay tolls, because it's on 2 wheels. BTW, there are also some pedal powered bicycles that uses this highway, like I said no bike lanes.

Public transport would take me 2 hours, riding my motorized bicycle only takes about 30 minutes for an 18 kilometer journey.
Public transport takes so long because there is no direct route to my destination.

It's a bit shaky and you'll have to turn down your volume... Enjoy the ride!!! :)
