A good ride, looks to be fastened on someone's car, going at a reasonable clip up and down LA streets. People look be walking at regular speed, so this film hasn't been sped up a bit or anything like that. Lots of businesses, spotted only one theater. The only problem with this is that, well, the roads were certainly BUMPY and well, there wasn't that many shock absorbers in the day, so yeah, the footage here is a bit... shaky.
