Old Blue Hair in a White Tarus going the wrong way on N-169 this morning.

LoL.

It was the damdist thing I've ever seen. 

I was just past 244 were the construction starts to get really heavy and here this white tarus was coming head on.  At first I thought it was a construction inspector/worker's vehicle.... NOPE... old blue hair with her hands @ 10 and 2 OBLIVIOUS that she was on the wrong side of the highway.

Last I heard they finally stopped her @ 61st..

Some of us drink coffee, others have a little bing'er to brighten their day, yet others barrel down highways going the wrong direction.

Congratulations are in order for someone. Whether it's the drivers on the road who managed to avoid the wrong-way driver or police for reacting quickly to get traffic stopped, I don't know. But thanks to whoever deserves it.

I attempted to call 911, but after 45 seconds on hold with the dispatcher, and then another 45 seconds on hold with Police, I just gave up assuming there were 20 other people calling it in

Or dumb asses still calling in the earthquake from yesterday.

I assume the police gave her directions downtown.

We welcome wrong-way drivers here. The police just give a friendly wave.

It's a drinking game: one drink for a wrong-way driver, four drinks if they immediately turn onto a second one-way going the wrong way. Two drinks if they stop at the light for five or more seconds, then proceed against the light. Two drinks if they go the wrong way around the main mall fountain. Three if they hit the fountain.

Drink 'til you pass out when they cause a head-on collision.
