It's a two-mile drive from Interstate 5 to the West Seattle Bridge.

I can understand how a new reporter hired from out of town might have such a boneheaded mis-grasp of the city's geography, but how does it get past an editor and make it into print?

Hopefully, some of these get added along dangerous intersections in south and west Seattle. UW could also use some.

I submitted a video request for any body worn video and in-car footage for the incident where SPD officer Anthony Belgarde pulled over a bus in West Seattle. But I was told by Edward Ocampo that no video existed for this incident. Is this a normal practice, to not record any video during a traffic stop?

Edit: I filed a complaint as I believe this violates 16.090-POL-2, where cops in uniform performing traffic stops are required to have their cameras on.

Edit 2: I did not get a confirmation email though.

Edit 3: had to email them again to get a complaint number
