Another possible low for Seattle drivers?
After the last time with people unwilling to pass a rent-a-cop, another stupidity happened tonight, but I leave it for you all to decide if this one is more or less of a stupidity.
Same highway, same approximate time (so it's dark), same situation with the speed limit increasing from 50 to 60. This time, cars are actually going 60mph (or even more!) when we get across the bridge.
But this time, as we pass a bus stop, there's a taxi stopped in the bus stop on the side of the road, but you can see the brake lights on. For what it's worth, as soon as I saw it, I knew it was a taxi. It's a bus stop, so there are lights, so I could see the taxi sign on the roof. But, taxis are often the same or similar model of car to police cruisers. So, the cars in front of me slowed way down, to less than 50mph. Again, speed limit is 60mph.
Discuss!
