Was in a car that was ticketed for this..cop was a giant prick and wrote up 5 other cars in under 30 minutes..

Easily pull over a 100 cars a week...that is close to 20 grand for 500ft of street.

Those 6 figure cop salaries don't pay themselves. Protect and serve and all that.

unfrozencaveman

Just avoid Bell nowadays

Did you get the officer's name? Lee Groinman perchance

Blame the cops. After all, they make the laws, right? Oh wait, maybe not. And who elects the people who write these laws?

I lived in western washington for years, working downtown Seattle for a few of them. Any dumb fuck who wants to drive around the flaming liberal city of Seattle today earns what ever stupid fucking ticket they receive.

Again, who makes the laws? Yep, Seattle's elected officials.

You couldn't pay me enough to live in that hell hole.

Try not breaking the law.

seriously, did you see the sign? why aren't people turning? the whole thing seems stupid.

Anyone can easily contest that ticket and overturn it in court. I'm sure most people don't though.

The cop wave his hand for the driver to come forward and drive through it. Cop was a giant douche probably related to Kim.

A business owner told us that a pedestrian was warning cars and the cop told the person they could not do that.

I liked the Ballard Driving Academy joke in the article.

If Seattle is a hell hole, what do you call a place that has 110 degree summers?

A place where poor old white people go to die.

He's probably just bitter due to layoffs

That's a total money grab in a convoluted, faggy wanbabe SF manner. I'll take the 110 degrees instead of that and "75 minutes between Everett and Seattle."

Fair point but my point of bad traffic stands

It took my dad about an hour to drive me to the airport once. It was about 2 p.m., not rush hr. It's supposed to take 20 minutes.

I've been getting crushed living in SF with Parking and traffic tickets. Faded paints, contradicting signs that account for every square inch of the city.

20 minutes from Everett to Sea-Tac?

That's 43 miles according to Google Maps.

In what fantasy land is that a 20 minute drive, even without another car on the road?
