I've never lived in Washington.

And stopping at a yellow turn arrow is what you are legally supposed to do... It's called safe driving practices. Yellow doesn't mean go faster... It means stop unless it's unsafe to do so. I can pontificate further if you'd like.

THANK YOU! Isn't all this stuff minimum required knowledge from the DRIVER'S MANUAL that everyone has to study to pass the license test?

Did I rep you yet for this? If not, shakes of fairy dust coming up!

Seattle = drivers who like to drive right next to each other on the freeway, always drive the speed limit, take everything personally so if you pass them or drive fast by them or GOD FORBID honk your horn, they get offended and upset. Did you know you can actually get a ticket for honking in Seattle? LOL!
Seattle = people who stop at yellow lights and yellow turn arrows (??) who stops at a yellow turn arrow???
Seattle = worst drivers ever on the worst freeway system in the country with no money/no taxes to improve it and some stupid light rail that will take you to the airport. Good luck with that! Oh, and a train that shuts down most of the winter due to debris on the lines. Ha!

I've seen much, much worse in New York/New Jersey.
Seattle drivers are Care Bears compared to them.

Sheesh, Ford, you just get huggier all the time!
But YOU'RE RIGHT. The only scary drivers here came from somewhere else where they drive in dangerous and ignorant ways.

Hurray for warm fuzzies!
