Drivers and beach goers share the highway in Lake Tahoe; More safety improvements ahead

LAKE TAHOE, Nev. - It's summertime, a beautiful time of year that brings with it perfect beach weather, something evident by the hundreds of cars parked along the roads around Lake Tahoe on a daily basis.

Drivers along the highway don't always slow down to speeds slower than the posted 45 mph, keeping it a dangerous stretch on busy beach days with car doors opening and people walking on the road with their coolers and beach gear.

Road Beat: Mitsubishi Outlander GT, A high value alternative

When tested exactly three years ago, I called the Mitsubishi Outlander a high value, bang for the buck CUV. Now with compact, small-midsize CUVs all costing in the mid $30K range and more, the Mitsubishi stands out even more as my extremely loaded three rows of seats Outlander GT stickered for $36K all in including the boat from Japan. While the price is up a minuscule three percent, additional content and improvements have increased the value quotient. And that quotient grows as inflation would have boosted the price by at least six percent.

Road Beat: 2019 Volvo V60 T6 AWD, Momentum is certainly not lacking

Momentum has many synonyms such as thrust, energy, force or push. With this new Volvo, it is most appropriate as it can sprint from 0-60 mph in less than 5.2 seconds a world class time. OK, so there is little question this Volvo and many others powered by its T6, 316 hp 2.0L turbo and supercharged engine are extremely quick. It’s a relatively a new trait brought on about 20 years ago with an S60 T6 sedan, a vehicle I called the Rolex Rocket for its brilliant blue instrumentation ala a blue faced Rolex Submariner wristwatch.
