4-ways and their use

[Gregory OConnor]

Pete, thanks for the info. Most mountain grades have posted turns
that further reduce the speed with a suggestion 25, 30,35mph .
second gear and at 1800R's travel is a comfortable heatfree 35 mph.
The same roads that have long stretches of straight incline, usuly
have a passing lane for that section. The big fear with not allowing
following traffic to pass is when one of the following cars try and
pass in the oncomming lane.

I asked a trucker today if he recalls the 5 car law your dad wrote.
He said he understood it to state: 'If five or more cars are
following and one or more of the five or more is a CHP officer, you
must hit the turn out.'
