“Even though there has been improvement here by placing a barrier and/or increasing the height of the barrier between the opposing Highway 17 lanes, accidents continue unabated.”

Q: Twenty-five years ago my Honda Prelude was totaled and I was nearly killed on the infamous second blind curve northbound on 17 between the Summit and Redwood Estates. Aside from the fact that the investigating officer never mentioned the bald tire on the lady’s car that spun out in the rain and caused the accident , nothing has been done in all those years about the short line-of-sight danger there. There is still a confining wall on each side of the roadway, as well as undulating pavement.

Q: If you’re driving on Highway 17, please do not honk or flash your lights at the car in front of you. There is a reason they are driving that slow. If you want to go faster, wait for a chance to move around them safely. It’s just rude to honk or flash your lights and you can cause an accident!A: I agree with you. In addition, on 17 it is safer to drive in the right lane and use the left lane to pass, then to move right again.
