State Route S/R 60 near US Highway I-10

Beaumont, CaliforniaJun 11, 20082 Comments

I/We are the CHP officers that work S/R 60 through the "Badlands" from I-10 to Gilman Springs. I/We want you to know where we "sit" with out Lidar units. This area of S/R 60 is posted for 65-mph. We usually don’t even think of stopping you unless you are at 80-mph or better (but sometimes we’ll take a 79 or 78), so giving you up to 14-mph over in a "maximum" speed zone is being more than fair. So, here are the Mile Post Markers we sit at; 29.50 (W/B west of Western Knolls); 29.00 (W/B between Western Knolls and Jack Rabbit Trail); 28.50 (W/B just east of Jack Rabbit Trail); 27.00 (W/B about one mile west of Jack Rabbit Trail); 26.50 (W/B E/O the "Summit"); 25.00 (W/B at the "Summit"); 24.00 (W/B about one mile W/O the "Summit). So these are all the hot spots, we want you to know we are here so you won’t drive like maniacs through this area, particularly W/B in the first curve to the right W/O the summit, just look at all the vehicle strikes in the center median there. Happy motoring! At least you know where to pay attention in the "Badlands"

Good for you - I have seen some pretty bad accidents in this area. This helps the rest of us safe. Keep up the good work

It's amazing to see that people still gripe even though they're commonly given a 15mph buffer.
