**WARNING GRAPHIC VIDEO**

LINK

AP article on the incident

quote:

Two women were struck by a car whose driver sped through a protest-related closure on a freeway in Seattle, authorities said early Saturday.

A 24-year-old woman from Seattle suffered critical, life-threatening injuries and a 32-year-old woman from Bellingham had serious injuries, Washington State Patrol Capt. Ron Mead said.


quote:

Video on social media showed a white car traveling at a high rate of speed navigate around two vehicles positioned across the lanes as a barrier. The car careened toward a small crowd of protesters on the freeway, striking two people who flew into the air before landing on the ground.

Dishonest article.

Swerved to avoid the protestor and slammed on the brakes. Not sped through.

quote:

traveling at a high rate of speed


Um, because it was an interstate?

quote:

two vehicles positioned across the lanes as a barrier


Could easily be mistaken for a disabled vehicle.

If police are going to block the interstate, smart thing to do is....park a police vehicle with flashing lights so it's clearly visible well in advance. Or put marked sawhorses and barrels the whole way across.

There’s a law about this

There are plenty of other places like a city park you can protest

Sometimes you just dont feel sorry for people and this is one of them.
I'm sure the person will be charged but why? These idiots were the ones in the street. I think more of this should happen maybe it will get people thinking before stopping traffic .
