  • The Unspoken Drama of Angeles Crest Highway
    Jan 28 2025

    In the first episode of the Sociology of Car Podcast, we had the honor of gathering three leaders of the automotive community, Jimmy Xie, Nate Rodriguez, and Michael Kriskovic, to discuss why there have been so many car accidents on Angeles Crest Highway, as well as how the recent LA fire can impact the Los Angeles car scene.

    In this information-packed and engaging episode, they will cover a variety of hot-button topics, such as whether or not the Road & Track article on Good Vibes Breakfast Club encouraged more people to drive canyon roads than what the roads can handle, how modern sports cars’ immense capability can give inexperienced drivers a false sense of confidence and security, the mindset of law enforcement agencies operating on canyon roads, and how the closing of mountain roads due to the recent LA fire can introduce more problems for the car community down the line.

    Listen in to learn more from these industry leaders: Jimmy Xie, Nate Rodriguez, and Michael Kriskovic!
