最近一兩個星期發現警察伯伯在 Ash Way Park & Ride 給那些停在黃線上的車子開單. 這個 Park & Ride 常常八點前就已經是客滿的狀況, 所以很多車子就直接的停在邊邊的黃線上. 只是從來沒有見過有人被開單子, 因為數起來常常也有二三十輛車子停在黃線上. 看情況還是乖乖的停到附近的 Swamp Creek Park & Ride 或是 Mariner Park & Ride. 這兩個 Park & Ride 平常都還有約一半的空位. [img=images/ashway_swampcreek_mariner.jpg popup=false] 地圖出處: Google Maps Swamp Creek Park & Ride 八點後就沒有 Commute 公車, 但是可以搭每十五分鐘一班的 114/116 或 115 到 Ash Way Park & Ride. Mariner Park & Ride 也是八點後就沒有 Commute 公車. 但是至少還有每個小時一班的 414 到西雅圖. 如果不想等那麼久, 也可以搭每十五分鐘一班的 200/201/202 到 Ash Way Park & Ride. Side Note: China route delayed: 西北航空延遲他的西雅圖<->北京航線一年.
