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:
The driver is 70 years old. I suspect that was a factor in the mistake.
Seems very plausible. IMO a drivers license should have mandatory retesting every 10 years. And the driving test should be much more thorough
it should just be a straight up 10 year validity of licenses and a full redo of ALL the steps to get a license, no reason not to have that. Standards change, and you’ve gotta teach people the parts that have changed.
