Hi BNB, I like driving a little faster than some and really appreciate it when folks use the turn outs on 38 since there are not many places to pass, especially down bound. I politely ask with a headlight flash and thank them with a flasher on the hazards. But if I see a train of cars I just give up and resign that it's going to be a slow ride.

Baldwin- funny how everyone becomes the nanny when they drive the mtn! Just pull over and let people drive the speed they are comfortable with- or join the CHP! No one has a chance yesterday- I'm guessing at least half of the cars were visitors and content to drive slowly so we just settled back and did likewise. 😉

What a difference a day makes. Today i went down 38. Right about south fork caught up to the exodus. I was car number 14 in line. I stayed car 14 until Bryant! By that time there were at least 20 (or more) of us going 25mph. Where is CHP when you need them?
