A 46 year old Shoreline man sustained serious injuries after being hit by a car at N 199 St and Aurora Ave N.
At 8:27pm Wednesday, Shoreline officers responded to the collision in the construction area on Aurora. Witnesses reported seeing the 52 year old driver travelling north on Aurora at about the speed limit and seeing the pedestrian run across the roadway in the dimly lit intersection.
Alcohol does not seem to be a factor in the collision. The pedestrian was transported to a local hospital for treatment.
The King County Sheriff’s Office major accident detectives are investigating the collision.
And there is no mention of how the Aurora Corridor construction has removed all places where a pedestrian may cross the street in that area.
ReplyDeleteAs tragic as this is and construction aside, personal responsibility and good judgment crossing a busy highway should be the order of the day in this case.
