CHP to enforce speed limits on Hwy 49, Wednesday

From Sacramento Bee: "The California Highway Patrol will continue its "zero tolerance" program against speeding motorists in Placer County by canvassing Highway 49 on Wednesday.

Next Wednesday, the CHP will have a zero tolerance day on Interstate 80 from the Pacific Ocean to the Nevada border."

heh, they already started tonight. On my way home from work this evening, I saw at least 3 units pulled over with unlucky speeders, as well as another 2 roaming in both directions.

Day off for me tomorrow, I'm staying home ^^

So... does that mean there won't be enough to go around for Wentworth Springs and Icehouse roads? :banana: :banana:

Do those roads reside in Placer Co.? If so, I do believe you are correct.

Nope, both of those roads are in El Dorado county. Placer County only extends (southwards on 49 at least) for about 5 miles to the bottom of the canyon (I believe the river at the bottom is the North Fork of the American River)

Weve had drives up to Wentworth, Icehouse, Mosquito ridge, etc. a couple times (not to Mosquito ridge any more since it got a full-time cop pressense )
