left turn lane will be installed on Hwy 108 at the intersection of Via Este.
Sonora, CA -- Caltrans says a left turn lane will be installed on Hwy 108 at the intersection of Via Este.
Spokesperson Bob Boswell says, "We looked at all of the data over a five year period for this location, and compared it to similar locations statewide. The comparison showed that there were a total of nine left turn collisions, which was three times higher than the statewide average."
As part of the project, Hwy 108 will be widened near Via Este.
"A contract for the State Route 108/Via Este Left Turn Channelization Project is anticipated to be awarded on December 23rd, 2009," adds Boswell. "The project should be completed in the Fall of 2010."
A fatal accident recently occurred at this location during the last week of September

It does not require a stop light...They have been taking out some huge oak trees to widen the road there. Just a turning lane at this point will work fine....It's ludicrous that they still let cars stop dead in they're tracks on a busy highway to make a left turn...They should imeeeediatly paint a new set of double lines from Standard to Soulsbyville and put an end to those left turns .Too much traffic these days for that to occur.

That's real easy to say if you don't live on one of those roads. Here's a better idea. WATCH WHERE YOUR GOING!!!!!!!!!!! I have some idiot up my six at least once a week, cuz' they AINT PAYIN' ATTENTION. Start driving like your supposed to and there wouldn't be a problem.

Hey Biff...I live here in Rancho Poquitos...I'm more than happy to use Draper Mine to access off the Hwy.....While you may have an attractive six...There are more Dunderheads that suddenly see there turn and slam the brakes...
No, real easy is driving like you're supposed to.
Via Este isn't the only road off 108 between Standard and Soulsbyville. Some of us have NO choice unless we drive a mile up, make a U-ee and come back down. All so the morons who have no business behind the wheel can keep driving with their head up their ? Gimme a break.

Nope...No Break....Suicide road so poor Goosey isn't put out.....
Plan your trips more efficiently....
Drivin a mile so someone can stay alive is a problem Why???
My point? Your joking, right?
If I haven't made my point by now, you're one of the problems.
BE AWARE, PAY ATTENTION TO THE CARS AHEAD OF YOU, THE CARS BEHIND YOU, AND THE CARS ON THE SIDE ROADS. USE YOUR SIGNALS, FLASH YOUR BRAKE LIGHTS AND LOOK IN YOU MIRRORS.
If you can't do that, STAY OFF THE ROAD!!!
If you CAN do that, there's no need to change anything.
The laws/rules of the road are there, in black and white. Don't break'm, no problem.

Unless you're on a motorcycle or in a small stunt plane then you come under a different set of guidelines. Roflmaopimp or dust I misquote the great Goose? 100mph on the highway on a rice rocket is fine and ten feet off the water is fine in a stunt plane although there are laws in black and white concerning both situmizations lol

Absolutely, I never said I wasn't breaking the law.
There's a huge difference between runnin' 100 up a one way, empty road,,, and NOT paying attention on a two lane crowded one. If I got caught I'd pay the fine and be done with it. The only one hurt is my wallet.
, I just got the call everyone hates to get. My kid brother just got word he has stage 2 lung cancer.
