While traveling in Washinton State at the end of July 2006,
I was headed into Seattle on Route 5 South when I ran into a
sustained traffic backup. The cause was rubber necking- a slowdown
of traffic caused by people observing a multi car accident on
5 north- the other side of the highway. It was a three or four
car pileup replete with ambulances, tow trucks and serious damage-
worthy of an extended glance.
I did my part to further delay traffic and snapped these two
photos while I slowed and rolled by. When I returned to my hotel
and looked at the photos I was annoyed that my picture of the
main crash (due to digital camera delay) was blocked by Volkswagon
traveling through the one open lane on the side of the road where
the accident occurred- However the image shows rubbernecking
in action --observe the two craned heads inside.
