Reminders for we commuters


Messages and reminders the Washington Department of Transportation could share on the normally unused freeway signs:

  • Merge at the last opportunity - zipper merge.  Merging earlier just slows traffic on one or both lanes.
  • Drive a little Slower - it won't really take longer to get where you're going, there's less wear on the equipment and it's safer.
  • Don't cross Gore Points - is it still a fine over $400?
  • Never cross double white lines - HOV lane or not.
