Also from the same thread:

For people who aren't intimately knowledgeable about the Seattle rail system, the Mt Baker station is an elevated platform. Meaning she had to have driven the WRONG WAY on a railroad about 40 feet up in the air for SEVERAL MILES to end up here.

Edit: it looks like it was not "several miles" but less then one mile; a notable feat anyway:

The excuse that the GPS led them there is so ridiculous. Even if it did, you should absolutely have the awareness to determine that you can't drive on railway tracks and override that decision.

Drivers need to be held more accountable for the moronic things they do. You make mistakes with gigantic machines and people get hurt or die. It's not a, "whoops."
