    ...But I thought it was those photos. You say "these," so I say "those," right?

  5. West of California Admiral Way drops off into an endless void. To gaze into it will result in madness as the human brain cannot truly comprehend infinity; your only chance is to drive head on as fast as you can and hope to tear through to the other side.

    If fireplug62's photo had a little more time for exposure it would look something like this.

  10. JRamels, that's the mess I was thinking about. Seems that the unfortunate car under the Volvo was hit hard from behind. The Volvo looked untouched except for being lifted. Crazy!

    Yeah, it must have been a huge crash! and a heavy vehicle going very fast to exert that much force! Someone got a big surprise when they woke up this morning.

  12. I not sure if it is the same as the fauntleroy junction west of California but I suspect it is. They finally made the right lane a turn only except for buses. I think that is much better. It does seem to be an accomadation to the buses so they can stop after the intersection and not hold up traffic in the intersection. The same thing happens at Delridge and Andover and at 35th and roxbury etc etc. For some reason drivers think that zipping past on the inside to get ahead of you is how merging works. Good now that we have drawn attention to the problem looks like its fixed. No wait wait I see a damn prius driver trying to sneak past me on the inside let me just narrow the lane here a bit and glare. OK my range rover wins! Woo hoo.

    actually it is a 5-lane street w/o California that turns into a 3-lane street as you head west.

    mpento:

    Yes, it is similar to Fauntleroy west of California; and I agree changing the right lane to right turn only was a big improvement.

    At least the driver had very good insurance.
