Scary turn 605 S to 60 E

[mikejet]

So I was driving yesterday back from Pasadena and going from the 605 S to the 60 E we take that ramp at 30, 5 miles above the speed limit posted. There are 4 people in my Fit. Next thing I know I feel the car slip an hear the tires screeching and I let up and the gas and it grabs back on. Then, further up the ramp it happens again!

I don't know what was wrong. It never happened again to my car after that. It's a really slick road for some reason and scarred the crap out of me. Especially since I had my wife and her mom in the car with me.

i don't know of that turn, but was it raining? if it was, maybe the water on the road filled your pattern in the tires, making the tires to not grip at all. That's at least experiences i've had..
I don't think it has anything to do with the car. if it happens again a few times, i would ask a dealer.

there was prob oil on the floor... also it may have been slick due to people running the AC and the water drippage from that. I still think the 10/605 interchange is worse. lol.

That one is just horribly designed. Why do you have to cross over to get to the freeway you want?

sometimes it happens to me too, but on the 101 south connecting to the 405 north theres a ramp that says 25mph and i take it at 35 or ever 40 sometimes. but i think i'm going to purchase new tires soon. cuz new tires will help alot with handling

Maybe driving the speed limit would help if that ramp is always bad?
