Historic Route 66 — Fontana's Most Iconic (and Dangerous) Street

Foothill Boulevard is the historic alignment of U.S. Route 66, running east-west through Fontana. Today it is a high-speed, high-volume commercial corridor with dozens of driveways, businesses, and cross-street intersections — creating constant accident risk for drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians.

Why Foothill Boulevard Is So Dangerous in Fontana

High Speed

Speed Limit & Driver Behavior

Foothill Blvd has a 45 mph speed limit through much of Fontana, but many drivers travel 55–65 mph. This speed differential — combined with frequent traffic signals — creates high-severity rear-end and broadside accidents.

Commercial Strip

Driveway & Access Point Conflicts

Dozens of commercial driveways along Foothill Blvd create constant left-turn and right-turn conflict points. Drivers pulling out of shopping centers and parking lots misjudge gaps in traffic and cause serious T-bone accidents.

Pedestrians

Pedestrian Accident Risk

Foothill Blvd has significant pedestrian traffic between commercial businesses. Drivers failing to yield at crosswalks — or pedestrians attempting to cross mid-block — result in serious pedestrian knockdown accidents with catastrophic injuries.

Red Lights

Signal Violations

Red-light running at Foothill Blvd intersections is a leading cause of T-bone crashes. The City of Fontana has red-light cameras at select Foothill Blvd intersections, which can provide crucial video evidence for your claim.
