Car Drives on I-90 Trail, Prompting Investigation
SEATTLE — The Washington State Patrol (WSP) is currently investigating a viral video showing a car speeding across the I-90 Trail. The video, shared on Reddit, depicts the vehicle driving rapidly and weaving between cyclists and pedestrians, which is alarming given that the trail is designated for non-motorized traffic.
Bicyclists and walkers frequently use this 10-mile paved trail that connects Seattle to Bellevue. Another video of the incident has also circulated on Instagram.
Safety Concerns
The Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) has acknowledged the situation and stated that WSP is leading the investigation. WSDOT emphasized that safety is their top priority and that they are closely collaborating with WSP to understand the events and implement any necessary mitigations.
The I-90 Trail stretches across Lake Washington, beginning in Rainier Valley and ending in Factoria, Bellevue, making it a vital route for outdoor enthusiasts.
