It was a tough day for drivers and traffic. A bus fire described in this Renton Reporter story snarled I-405 this morning, while drivers at Sunset and Houser were slowed by police activity at the Houser Way Bypass tunnel after a high-speed collision.
Here is Mayor Law’s own photos and write-up about the accident on Houser.
Renton Police Traffic Investigators were called out to a serious, head-on collision near the Houser St. tunnel at Sunset Blvd. in Renton this morning. Both drivers miraculously survived the crash. One driver traveling at a high rate of speed lost control in the tunnel and slammed into the oncoming car. Alcohol may have been involved. New safety features in automobiles and the quality service provided by our fire fighters and medics has clearly increased the chances of survival.

Denis sure has a good eye for creating amazing photos.
Damn, Denis survived visiting this scene? I was hoping he would get hit and push for getting the speed limit lowered to 5 or 10 MPH.
