Well, those in SoCal know to avoid the 405 if at all possible, especially during rush hour.


Found this pic on the CHP forums:

The handwriting says -

Looking South at Ventura Cutoff 7-3-58


Judging by the shadows, that was about 9-10 AM.

Cool pic. I wonder what the speed limit was when it first opened.

Is that a left lane hog in the far left lane?? ;)

SoCal must have been epic in 1958.

Yeah - epic smog.

I've seen some old films of SoCal freeways from the 40s and 50s. Nowadays even our toll roads have more traffic on 'em.

I was gone by then, but it was definitely epic in 1956-57! :D
