the posted, very bizarre rule that one has to yield to A SINGLE VEHICLE when it comes up behind you.

I have driven this section of hwy 20 for over 40 years and there is no such rule.

Oh, yes...there is!

I actually took a picture of the sign, first posted a few miles out of Fort Bragg. If only this site allowed uploads from my computer I'd post it.

I agree that it's total madness- coming as I do from a State where one must yield to behind-traffic only once they've piled up to five vehicles it made/makes no sense to me whatsoever. But that's not the case in California, at least as posted on that section of Hwy. 20.

And I had plenty of folks breathing down my neck when traveling that road...so they, at least, take the rule seriously.

As noted earlier, that 35 miles will take anyone towing/driving a bigger RV around an hour to negotiate it. If traveled during commuter hours, there will be a lot of hot-under-the-collar-folks stacking up behind.

Be prepared!
