Also from the same thread:
For people who aren't intimately knowledgeable about the Seattle rail system, the Mt Baker station is an elevated platform. Meaning she had to have driven the WRONG WAY on a railroad about 40 feet up in the air for SEVERAL MILES to end up here.
Edit: it looks like it was not "several miles" but less then one mile; a notable feat anyway:
We could just have higher standards for drivers...
While this person probably needs their license taken away, blaming drivers for unsafe infrastructure is not the answer.
Well, the drivers are by-and-large the ones who opposed properly funding the light rail's initial construction, so I do still blame them.
The infrastructure should be better, but this is a really difficult mistake to make if you're fit to drive
When the infrastructure is only unsafe because the driver is a fucking moron it is.
