What part of "the snow's getting deeper, it's time to turn back" didn't they understand? I suppose if the GPS showed the shortest distance from point A to B was driving off a cliff, they would have done that too! Unbelievable!

I agree, but unlike the bull, at least humans have a choice.

I agree. While I feel for the victim, the assault wasn't Trimets fault.

Got caught up in this mess heading home and had to take Marmot Road where there was a tree down, but that's been cleaned up since about 9:30, and the road is open.

Beautiful photos!-- but I believe the photo of the "salmon sculpture at sunset on Long Beach" is actually a gray whale :)

Another senseless death that could have so easily been prevented. How sad.

Duh! I'm all for safety, and I follow the rules. I've been driving forty years and haven't had so much as a traffic ticket or accident. What I'm saying, is that people today are too distracted by cells phones, combing their hair, shaving, and even brushing their teeth while behind the wheel. Those are the idiots I'm talking about!!

Fortunately no one was killed. I have to wonder though, was the trooper completely on the shoulder? I saw a trooper on Highway 26 the other day. He had a car stopped westbound (I was heading eastbound) and was writing a citation. What alarmed me, was that while the driver of the car was completely off the highway along the shoulder, the patrol car was stopped, blocking a portion of one of the lanes, which looked to me like an accident waiting to happen.
