On September 30, 1955, James Dean drove his Porsche Spyder into eternity at the intersection of old US Route 466 and Route 41 near Cholame, California. The barren landscape has remained virtually unchanged since that time. A few years after Dean's crash, Route 466 was abandoned and replaced with the current Route 46 (which is visible on the right of the screen). This video was shot on September 30, 2022.
