Looks awful, one car I could see was destroyed.
It IS SoCal!!!! They are ALL here because So Cal is uninhabitable now days!!I came to Havi yesterday on a turn around trip for boat stuff.
I had no idea how crowded Havasu was on a Jan. Monday from 9-2pm traffic wise.
Definitely going to reconsider other locations to buy in, looked like any so cal city with traffic.
I’ll most likely always have a Ca home but yesterday really made me reconsider buying a second home elsewhere. That and the $100k price increase in homes in 12 months ha ha.It IS SoCal!!!! They are ALL here because So Cal is uninhabitable now days!!
Also what doesn’t help and I am not a traffic engineer but there are either too many lights or they aren’t synchronized or both. Maybe just too many damn people.I came to Havi yesterday on a turn around trip for boat stuff.

I'm convinced Havasu's light synchronization was done by a someone with an extremely limited sense of time and math or a Democrat...same thing but they are a clusterfuck...keeps the brake shops in business though.Also what doesn’t help and I am not a traffic engineer but there are either too many lights or they aren’t synchronized or both.

This!!!This is crazy... I won't even drive my SXS on the streets anymore.

considering it includes the traffic on lake havasu ave that light works pretty well at flowing traffic in general. yeah it sucks when you on 95 trying to go across town and hit it red.. its also at which point the speed limit changes.Mayberry signal on the south side. Its a 10 minute wait at that signal for some reason. I can't figure out why LHC can't do traffic signals to match traffic flows.
Unless you are traveling north past Palo Verde North, there is almost no reason to use 95 to travel across town.I’ll most likely always have a Ca home but yesterday really made me reconsider buying a second home elsewhere. That and the $100k price increase in homes in 12 months ha ha.

nice thing about 95 is thats the only way the snowtards know how to get around..Unless you are traveling north past Palo Verde North, there is almost no reason to use 95 to travel across town.
Yep. Every other route is usually smooth sailing.nice thing about 95 is thats the only way the snowtards know how to get around..![]()
I went to Chase bank at 1pm.Unless you are traveling north past Palo Verde North, there is almost no reason to use 95 to travel across town.
That Chase is always packed. The other one by Food City is usually very low traffic.I went to Chase bank at 1pm.
14 people in line, two tellers
Glad I only needed ATM
Mcculloch and havasu blvd packed too
I mentioned the same thing to my wife a few weeks ago. Was not feeling the vibe there at all, first time in my 25 years going. It felt like Cali, and I mentioned that we will be looking at other spots more relaxed. The I pull those up and its the same story of people flocking everywhere!I’ll most likely always have a Ca home but yesterday really made me reconsider buying a second home elsewhere.

Lots of people turn right on red, flip a u-turn and then catch the quicker green, pretty popular routine by the locals, as that light sucks.Mayberry signal on the south side.

It will blow over when people can take those expensive vacations again.I mentioned the same thing to my wife a few weeks ago. Was not feeling the vibe there at all, first time in my 25 years going.

I know it may blow over, but we are going on a year of this know and who knows?
Nor legal, I have been told that since 95 is a state highway you are only allowed to cross it, not travel north / south on it. I have seen people take the 40 back from Topock as well.This!!!
Blows my mind at how many sxs's we see out on the highway (just because they can, doesn't mean its smart or safe), no need to be a crash test dummy.

Friend is a AZ trooper, it really boils down to what kind of mood the guy is in that day. Ive seen folks drive them all the way down to the turn off for the Desert Bar in Parker.I was just in town and thought the same thing. I thought you can only cross 95 not drive on it with a sxs. I saw tons of them cruiser 95 the last 5 days.
I do it sometimes to get to the cement plant. I pull to the right to let cars pass and check my mirrors often.Friend is a AZ trooper, it really boils down to what kind of mood the guy is in that day. Ive seen folks drive them all the way down to the turn off for the Desert Bar in Parker.
Depends on how you licensed your sxsI was just in town and thought the same thing. I thought you can only cross 95 not drive on it with a sxs. I saw tons of them cruiser 95 the last 5 days.
You've see them on the 40?? Wow.... I always thought jumping on the 95 was pushing it every time, but the 40??? wtf...Nor legal, I have been told that since 95 is a state highway you are only allowed to cross it, not travel north / south on it.

Yep. A 4 lane, flat, death road with good visibility.95 is the new rice road.
I've said it for years. Havasu is no different than living in Orange County. If I want to deal with traffic and crowds I may as well stay put. That place is only going to get worse.I’ll most likely always have a Ca home but yesterday really made me reconsider buying a second home elsewhere. That and the $100k price increase in homes in 12 months ha ha.

And when they would park an empty police car at the edge of town to get people to slow down.Miss the old days when Acoma had only 1 stop sign.
They could’ve washed it a little more often…And when they would park an empty police car at the edge of town to get people to slow down.![]()
Havausu or so cal?I've said it for years. Havasu is no different than living in Orange County. If I want to deal with traffic and crowds I may as well stay put. That place is only going to get worse.
I do that 99% of the time. Even while towingLots of people turn right on red, flip a u-turn and then catch the quicker green, pretty popular routine by the locals, as that light sucks.
Assume that red on red you’re making is not on 95 NB at Mulberry? It is well marked, no right on red. I will often take that 3rd lane going straight to get ahead of the slower drivers ahead of me. In any case that intersection is a PIA.Lots of people turn right on red, flip a u-turn and then catch the quicker green, pretty popular routine by the locals, as that light sucks.
Most LEO and hose draggers are heading to Prescott. Carefree and Cave Creek are full BTWI came to Havi yesterday on a turn around trip for boat stuff.
