Oh, and join the new Seattlest group on Facebook so you don't miss the next Seattlest happy hour. Everyone was all, "Where's Troy?" And we were like, "We dunno." So it was awkward....

Yeah, okay, let me try for a 3rd time. I misread the intro. I thought it said "I don't know why there IS an exclamation point", not ISN'T. Memo to self - read carefully before sending idiotic commen...

To expand on my previous comment (recap: ha!), I live on Queen Anne, and all those All Way Stops... I'm more than a little defensive at this point. It's a rare week when I don't watch as a driver sw...

I'm a little disappointed that Pechman didn't use this precedent-setting opportunity to hit him with some heavy fines/restitution. Does this conviction open him up to future class-action civil legal ...

i think any fear of safety one might have here as a pedestrian is just the nature of drivers in big cities and nothing specific about seattle. i've done LOTS of walking around this city, and while hav...

I wonder if they'll do one of those report violater numbers for this like they do for litterers and carpool cheaters. But then again, you'd need to get on your phone to make that call. Quite the conu...
