About this event
Join your PCA friends on a rare opportunity to visit Bruce Meyer's car collection. Bruce is one of the founders of the Los Angeles Peterson Automotive Museum and has a small but very exclusive collection of his own. He has graciously agreed to open his doors to San Diego Region members so we can enjoy the exquisite automobiles in his collection (including several historically significant Porsches).
"Nestled in downtown Beverly Hills is one of the best little car collections in the world. Legendary car collector Bruce Meyer has a small but airy gallery containing – without going into specifics – several first-in-production specials, a handful of legendary racers, some record-setting motorcycles, and Clark Gable's personal Duesenberg. Also featured is an incredible selection of memorabilia and one of the best personal automotive libraries you'll ever see. A visit to the Meyer collection is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that no visitor will ever forget." -- Sean Cridland, Automotive Journalist

Event requirements
Participant Requirements and Expectations
Age Restriction
PCA requires that all drivers must be at least 18 years old.

All automobile makes and models are welcome.
Event Waivers and Insurance
All persons who will be participating on a Driving Tour, including all passengers (and minors, see below), must sign a PCA event waiver.
Emphasis on Safety
- Drivers will be expected to obey all traffic laws.
- Posted speed limits and traffic control provisions will be observed during the drive.
- Car Separation: Drivers should avoid lagging far behind the car in front of them, to ensure group integrity. But under no circumstances should drivers take unsafe or unnecessary measures to do so. In particular, speeding through a yellow or red traffic signal in order to keep up with the group is not acceptable.
Driver Conduct
Failure to follow procedures detailed above, unsafe driving, blatant disregard of traffic laws, passing unsafely, and putting others in danger are reasons to exclude a participant from a tour. Such behaviors should be reported to the driving group leader and/or the Driving Tour Chair. The Driving Tour Chair is authorized to exclude a participant from the tour. Should the PCA-SDR Board of Directors deem that a member’s behavior violates PCA or San Diego Region rules and requirements for participation in events, the Board of Directors may impose sanctions, including but not limited to restricting the member’s participation in future events.
