2 AM: Another crash of note – this time on West Marginal Way. Southbound lanes are blocked at Puget Way while police investigate. This originally was dispatched as another “rescue extrication” situation but that was quickly canceled. However, police described the scene to dispatch as “high-speed” because of the damage done to the vehicle. We haven’t heard yet about injuries but will follow up with SFD.
4 AM: Some traffic was being allowed through, last we heard.
Shocker. Listening to every race that starts at about 1am, I’m only surprised this doesn’t happen more often. There was another 2am crash two weeks ago at the 17th intersection on West Marginal that was so loud my neighbors and I woke up and went outside thinking a transformer blew. These races happen every weekend for months during the dry season, every year. It’s just normal, and crashes are the accepted status quo, apparently. I hope everyone is OK tonight.
Weekend, and weeknight racing has been occurring on E Marginal for a LONG time. I heard stories from people who watched and participated in the late ’60’s.
Sorry, comment time is over.
