Last night at about 10:30 I heard helicopters outside and they were LOUD.
Out the window I saw that a car had gone over the first Identical and there were emergency vehicles all over Mulholland.
This morning I was able to photo the car being taken out.
It was a long way down the mountain, maybe 400 linear feet.
The car must have been going real fast around the corner and have been fully loaded because it blew down the new gaurdrail to the ground.
From the imprint marks, it must have rolled side over side all the way down.
Police were all over and investigators too. Probably a fatality.
Mulholland was blocked for awhile during the operation.
In over 50 years of living here, I have seen many accidents where cars or motorcycles went over the edge or had head-on collisions in The Identicals.
This is a very dangerous spot, along with Carls, Deadmans, both ends of European Straight, Sideways, the top and bottom of the Esses, and a few more.
Always drive more carefully when your car is fully loaded, it handles differently.
And don't forget where the potholes are. A pothole almost killed a Porsche driver last year when it caused it to flip over in Sideways. Old Man Gary saw the aftermath.
Please be careful.
