I've driven highway 1 along the northern California coast many times. It truly is a beautiful stretch of highway, but it certainly is dangerous. Many crashes happen every year.
We can rule out fog as a factor in this crash since today was cold by very clear due to high winds yesterday. Typical causes are being run off the road by a vehicle going the other way, not paying attention and missing a corner, going too fast and missing a corner, going too fast when the road is slippery, and the list goes on...
These days when I drive on 1 I have to go so slow there is very little cause for concern. My wife gets car sick... Sort of a built in warning that I can't silence.
Really sad to hear about this though.
