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:
I work for an MTA. This sort of thing happens all the time. People are crazy 🤣🤣🤣
So the cars are able to fit through the entrance?
Yes. When the light rail vehicle enters the tunnel from the street, it’s at the same grade as the traffic. All a car has to do is ignore signs and bumps, etc. Pretty sure they’re usually blind drunk.
Car traps are good, but still close up the line. In this case though maybe the car would be recoverable. Now they need a crane.
An MTA, I’m pretty sure there’s only one MTA (ok well technically there’s two)
Even better:
According to someone who was there and watched it happen, there were multiple people banging on her car windows trying to get her to stop. But she just kept going and going until THE LITERAL GROUND FELL AWAY leaving her car beached on the frame on top of the train tracks.
Willfully doing it does explain a lot
Focus, commitment, and sheer fucking will.
LADY THERE IS NO VALET PARKING!
She should prominently lose her license for this but this is America where that doesn’t even happen if you kill people.
this is Utah. A hotbed of the dumbest most religiously conservative Americans. I would put Utah a degree below Florida on the dumbass scale.
FYI Utah is home of the church of the LDS cult, aka Mormons. it has some of the most fucked up child abuse documented in the country (and that’s what’s actually documented).
One you are objectively wrong look up the station name, two if the FLDS and the LDS are the same then the black hebrew israelites are israelies
my mistake, it’s Seattle.
but that car (and presumably the driver) is from Utah…the incorrigible cesspool of pedophiles and charlatans.
Or it’s a rental car. I rented a car in the Seattle area with Nevada plates a couple of weeks ago.
I get the impression that rental car companies register cars in states with lower tab fees and then move them around the country. I wouldn’t be surprised if registering in Utah is a lot cheaper than Washington.
This is an Utah driver in Seattle. How the hell did they get lost all the way up here??
probably on their way to bricks and minifigs and got lost after they stole $200k.
yeah driving up a 3 story tall incline (it’s a very elevated station) should be grounds for repossessing their license.
They’re just waiting for the train to push them into 1885.
There were much better ways to do that, that Doc Brown would have known…
That’s just baffling. I know our light rails, take it to Seatac whenever I travel. How the everliving fuck did that happen?
Looking at the station makes it even crazier:
Is there a right way to drive several miles on an elevated train track?
In a train.
I guess that it means that train direction on that track was opposite… I don’t think this makes this episode any worse 🤷♂️
I figured, I just couldn’t help trying to be funny.
40 feet up in the air for SEVERAL MILES
Fuck. I’m honestly just impressed.
Wrong way too
More like a quarter of a mile
Lucky she made it to a station.
How, just how can you be this dumb? What’s in the water over there? Murcery? Lead?
Mormonism… Basically worse than all three.
Ffs this is in Seattle, mormons might be dumb but even they don’t deserve to catch strays like this.
Utah plates though
driver is from utah, not here. don’t blame us for her crazy shit.
To be honest, I was talking much wider than the state of Washington.
yeah and I’m sure all the people where you come from are fucking perfect.
No, but the amount of dumb coming from that part of the world is staggering.
What the fuck is wrong with some people…
IKR?
You’re supposed to take the tires off so the rails go in the grooves of the rim.
What kind of test do you guys have to pass for a drivers license???
Well, during our tests, we never have to go past railroad tracks! How can we be expected to just know that we’re not supposed to turn into them?
Idk about several miles, looks like a few hundred meters on a map.
Has to be sleep-walking, drug use, or schizo-affective. I don’t see how else this happens to someone with a functioning mind.
Or just a Utah driver… but according to her it was GPS that led her astray
Could be all 3 🤔
Clearly, you can. But while you’re busy wondering if you can, don’t forget to stop and ask yourself if you should
You know I could not imagine how this could happen but then I recall in my city on one line there is road level crossings twice near the end of the line. Actually there might be another line that has something similar that Im not sure if I have ever been on. That one is like a spur line that expands off the end of the line of one of the more major lines.
