In California you have to yield if 5 vehicles are behind you, not just one. So scope your turnouts very careful and use them if you are slowing 5 or more vehicles behind you. As for the hwy 20, it can be quite curvy and some grades but it is doable, better then Hwy 1. I will be going on hwy 20 to Fort Bragg on wednesday and will refresh my memory as it has been a few years since I have been there. I do know that Cal trans has that section of Hwy 20 as a red route which means MH over 40 feet are prohibited. Here is a link to the map that shows Hwy 20 as a RED route, when it comes up click on number 1 on the map and scroll down and find Hwy 20

Thanks for the cal trans link. I didn't know there was such a service. Quite nice. After reading this post in which there was quite a bit of good information. I have decided to use 20 for our up coming trip. I have been wondering what route to use and despite its short comings, it would appear to be the least of evils. I know I went over the route probably 15 or more years ago pulling a 5th wheel. Hauling a TC now should make it a bit easier.
