The roadway is totally unsafe, say it again and again, put a center divider up the middle of the road and lower the speed limit to 45mph but can’t do it why?. Why?……….
It would increase the time it takes to travel to the Casino – a negative revenue impact. It’s called the Chumash Highway for a reason.
742 It was dangerous LONG before the casino was even a thought! The problem isn’t the casino, it’s the drivers… weird you blame the casino when they aren’t even open right now lol. Kind of proves the problem isn’t a place but more about the unsafe driving that happens on the road because people go too fast and don’t pay attention and there are a lot of turns. More highway patrols would help I think but you NEVER see any law enforcement when driving that road.
That area needs to go back to stagecoaches.
As far as a divider, I’m not sure there’s enough room throughout the highway. And, people don’t obey the speed limit now. I’ve nearly been hit many times with unsafe and/or illegal (across single or double yellow lines) passing from the opposite direction. …..Once by a car traveling northbound… pulling a boat, coming around a curve, that had the solid yellow line. I couldn’t see it since I was behind a truck with a camper. But the truck slowed some, and pulled onto the shoulder suddenly, and wondering why he did…. I figured I should follow him. Thankfully, I did… as I then saw the car with the boat trailer swerve suddenly into his lane as he passed the car he was following to avoid the truck I had followed. The boat was too light, so it couldn’t follow the car that quickly, and literally almost jackknifed, bouncing into what had been about where I would have been. The boat was almost next to me as it bounced in ‘my’ lane. I would have at the very least… hit the boat if I hadn’t followed my instincts, and the truck onto the shoulder. I would still like to shake the truck driver’s hand, for the cue that something wasn’t right.
