Last year, the Washington State Patrol announced a crackdown
on left land bandits in the Tacoma - Seattle - Everett
heavily congested corridor. It got a lot of press play,
and absolutely NOTHING happened. I still don't understand
why they went to all the trouble of publicizing something
they didn't plan to do. The current campaign, will signs
all over the place, is "When you see flashing lights, pull
over and slow down." (Meaning give safety vehicles on the
side of the road a wide berth.) But asking slowpokes to get
out of the way of people wishing to pass was just a flash in
the pan.
