Traffic circles are hard…for some people
Car leaves road after hitting a parked car and traffic sign
By Greg McCorkle
White Center Correspondent
This morning, at around 2: 30 am, the traffic circle at SW 102nd Street and 8th Ave SW in White Center claimed a third car since being installed last summer.
The sound of the crash was so loud it woke me up. The car horn was blaring for several minutes before I decided to put on some clothes and see if aid was needed. When I arrived, there were small bits of car strewn over a great distance. I found the car 6 feet below me in the ditch. Upside down. I called out to see if there was anyone injured but got no response so I immediately dialed 911. While on the phone deputies began arriving along with Burien Fire.
