That is a very dangerous stretch of highway. Only two lanes with lots of steep hills and blind curves. Drivers will try to take the turns going 70 MPH and then have to slam on their brakes when they round a turn and see the car in front of them going 30. I suspect something like that is what triggered the shooter’s road rage.

I am just a few miles away and have to drive down that highway often. You also have lots of idiots trying to pass another car right before a blind curve and either running them off the road or hitting another car head on.

It is dangerous. Hate that road. There’s always accidents. Safer to take 183 or 71 even if it takes longer.

Yes it is one hell of a road. I always thought that it would be a great Race Track if shut down. 183 north to 281 south then left on 1431 in Marble Falls back through Lago Vista/Jonestown and back to 1431 and 183. Repeat.
