A very curvy road, not particularly well banked on turns, in an area that often sees a lot of rain. Especially lately, of course. That concrete barrier you see in the pix is a fairly recent install. For 60+ years that road was high-speed curvy freeway with nothing between the traffic directions. I’ve driven that road a fair number of times in the 45 years I’ve lived in CA; it’s one of those things where when you think about how many completely brain-dead people are in/come to CA and then add in one’s growing sense of risk aversion as one ages, it something I don’t do any more. One texting idiot will obliterate your whole day on that road.
I used to do it about once a week before the barrier. After barrier, during dot com boom, I saw 2 car accidents that had 250k damage. A lot of people apparently though buying a 100k+ car conveys Earnhardt driving capabilities...
