Bellevue Stop Lights

Bellevue has the longest stop lights in the world. Or at at least in the US; I can't account for the world. These are lights that you can actually take the time to read something at. Or apply makeup. Or use a pad and pen to make lists and check things off - great for those errand-running days.

Note I am not saying to actually DO these things - you really should pay attention to traffic when you are behind the wheel. Plus, I've noticed that if I do start reading, sometimes I don't notice when the light turns green and I hold everyone else up - an unforgivable sin.

So if I SHOULDN'T be reading, then these lights give me the chance to practice Zen Driving. Slowing down the racing pace of my thoughts. Sometimes it actually works. :-)

I'll try to make a note of which lights seem to take the longest and add those posts here.

No doubt about Aliens. James Cameroon likes the double ending: Aliens, Terminators one and two, Cujo, and the many endings of Titanic, et al. He likes us to get good and relaxed before scaring the shyte out of us even worse than the first time.

Back to lights. 8th and 110th in Bellevue is exceedingly long. Avoid that one.
