I live along Champagne Blvd. People drive crazy on Champagne Blvd between Deer Springs and Gopher Canyon. The speed limit is 55. If you drive the speed limit you have a vehicle in your trunk and others fly by you ,crossing over a solid line. The CHP and/or Sheriff need to set up radar on that road at least once a week, if not more often, at varied times.
I am surprised there aren’t more serious accidents along here.
