I have so much anxiety going through that tunnel! Never forget the fire In 1982 , 7 people died
A tunnel makes huge sense it cuts through the big mountain
I seen the dash cam footage of a tunnel fire and it unlocked a huge fear when I go through the Caldecott. I would be on evacuation mode.
I looked up that big accident. It was 1982 and 7 people died: 2 from the crash and five from smoke inhalation and burns
Still haunts me!
