rumor has it...a guy won a lawsuit over a ticket at the dragon because they have the road posted at 30mph but they never legally changed the speed so offically on the books. it is still 55mph

It absolutely blows my mind that semis drive on 129 through there. I was staying at DGMR up in the woods to where I could kind of see the road through the trees at camp. Late at night I saw a couple of semis going west and I thought for sure they were lost and were going to get trapped. Crazy shit.

This is what it looks like to see your friend almost get killed by a semi

Normally, I"m not for any laws because some clown did something stupid, but watching that video makes it clear that the road is simply too sharp for semi-trailors.
