This is a car racers playground. There is little in way of policing up here. Both 84 and 35 have been and still are
racetracks. Cars gather at the intersection of 35&84 and take off, either racing to Hwy 1 or going along skyline boulevard. We who live here hear and see them most often on weekends but other days too. Letters and phone calls really make no difference . There aren’t enough sheriff or CHP personnel to patrol these roads...so the racers continue. I’m sure that’s what caused this tragedy.
Two couples going to dinner ...late afternoon ...
Being from Australia has nothing to do the cause. It’s the need for speed.
$20,000 bail is too little.
