This Is Why Snow in Seattle is Dangerous

This happened today in Downtown Seattle.

Two buses, coming down a very slippery, steep hill (that they had NO business on in the first place), slid nearly onto the Northbound lanes of I-5.

One bus (the one on the right), actually was behind the first bus and hit it. He was heading over too, but the angle on the railing made his momentum less so he just hit hard and wedged in.

Geez...

And people give me a bad time when I say

"It's not MY driving I'm worried about. It's all those idiots that don't have the sense to be driving in the snow and ice - my 4WD won't save me from them at all."

It's true. I have confidence in my driving...it's all those
bald tire,
no brakes,
"I can stop on ice like it's dry pavement, 'cause I have 4WD"
chuckleheads that I'm worried about.

Look again...nearly ON the FREEWAY. Did a lot of damage to that retaining wall too - the only thing that saved that bus is that it high centered on the wall - seriously, it was going over...

And you wonder why I don't take the bus...;) LOL
