……the motorcycle officer who parks his bike at the 99 offramp area.

AKA Officer Cool Shades. ;-)

Quick question here on the motorcycle officer who parks his bike at the 99 offramp area. Is he there most Tuesdays and Fridays now? Like 7:30am ish that last two weeks I’ve went by.

It’s nice he’s catching those cars driving in the bus lane but also seems the backup goes farther up Fauntleroy on those days.

Today was the first day he didn’t have at least two cars pulled over actually. Like taking candy from a baby revenue generating machine. Cheers.

In reply to Jen. Thank you, Jen. That's another one of those "not on the 911 log because (apparently) no one was hurt" type of incidents so we don't know unless we hear from someone. (In a bus or a passenger seat, of course.) Adding to the narrative.

Just passed what looked like a fairly minor two-car collision, pulled off on the (narrow) shoulder off the far right lane, near the crest of the eastbound WS bridge. A couple of people were out of their cars – they appeared to be inspecting damage. Traffic was going around them slowly, and there wasn’t much of a backup (yet).

There was also a motorcycle officer at the bottom of the hill on eastbound WS bridge (just before SR 99) ready to pull over bus lane violators.
