On December 27 South Tahoe Now published an article about the unsafe practices of motorists seeking snow play along Highway 50 in South Lake Tahoe and on Echo Summit, and now Caltrans is echoing that warning for other highways in the Sierra, especially Interstate 80.
Caltrans is reminding motorists that snow play is not permitted in State Roadside Rest Areas (SRRAs) or alongside highways, onramps or offramps for the safety of the public and other drivers.
