Any time you drive Salmon Falls Road, you should always expect:
  • CHP / Tickets for speeding - any weekend
  • Motorcycles/cars swinging wide coming head on into your lane at turns
  • Accidents / Ambulances on nice weather days!
  • People walking on the sides of the road

They have no choice but to keep idiots off that road. People are hurt there all the time. Its one of those love/hate roads. It makes me nervous every time I go up that way. A few friends have paid the price there, and I've seen multiple accidents. One time two guys on bikes right in front of us overshooting a turn ejecting bike and body flying over the side of the hill during one of our Cobra runs. We don't go there any more.

If you ask around, you might even get a few other folks to pipe in here how they have wrecked up their Cobras on that road too. Not a safe place to be. Many threads on it over the years.
