On Sept. 30, 1955, James Dean was driving northbound on Highway 99 south of Bakersfield when he was pulled over by a California Highway Patrolman for speeding in a race car. A telephone pole near Mettler Station has been accepted as the spot where Dean got his ticket.
About two hours later, Dean would be killed near Cholame when a college kid turned in front of the Porsche Spyder. Would Dean have been killed had he not been stopped or was it has time to go?
Jeff will show you the location and visit the Bakersfield grave of Officer O.V. Hunter!
