An almost identical journey to that taken by Dennis Weaver and Carey Loftin and the Peterbilt truck, in the Steven Spielberg Film "Duel",
...and a journey which I have taken many times in my Flight Sim from LA top Palmdale via Santa Paula, Soledad Canyon, and Santa Clara!
Both aircraft and road vehicles came to a sticky end!
An excellent read....

"What could possibly go wrong?"
"At Placerita Canyon, two men had just left their truck to have lunch when a rocket blew it up."
I'm sure that they remembered that one for the rest of their lives!
That was probably the day that they realized that "things" could always be worse.
