Dutch, that's pretty funny about the Nissan driver.

Hazards to navigation used to get blown out of the water or sunk in 100 fathoms.

Exactly what I was thinking about your detour, having been up in that area a few times.

Go over the side in winter weather and you might not get found for a few days.............or weeks.

Last January I drove over Donnor in my truck. They had just opened it back up. I was the only person on the road. Was the most peaceful drive I have ever had on that road.

Most of the issues on that road are do to the idiots out of the Bay Area going skiing. They have no idea about how to drive in the snow. They think because there in an all wheel drive or 4 wheel drive they can drive as fast as they want. Oh and stop fast too...

I guess probably not if you are carrying chains in addition to the bizzacks.


To be honest I see some snow tires on cars of people who live up in Tahoe, but for those who only drive in snow once or twice a year, hard to justify a second set of wheels and tires, and the room they take up to store them.

4WD fitted with ATs are not required to wear the chains, but other than that, when the CHP says to wear them, it is mandatory.
