Implement a Center Divider on the Highway to Mammoth Lakes, CA

The Issue

Rami and Taylor lost their lives, and Jordan, hospitalized, tragically on the two-lane highway to Mammoth Lakes, CA from Orange County, CA. They were hit head-on by a driver attempting to overtake a slower vehicle. This heartbreaking incident is not isolated; it's an unfortunate reality for many families who have also suffered due to similar accidents on this stretch of road.

According to the California Highway Patrol's Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System (SWITRS), there were 3,304 fatal collisions in California in 2019 alone. A significant number of these accidents occurred on undivided two-lane highways just like the one leading to Mammoth Lakes.

We are calling upon our local government and transportation authorities in California to implement a center divider along this highway. This safety measure has been proven effective in preventing head-on collisions and reducing fatalities. The Federal Highway Administration reports that installing median barriers can reduce cross-median crashes by up to 97%.

The loss of Rami and Taylor could have been prevented with better road safety measures. Let us ensure no more lives are lost needlessly on this route again.
