The Washington State Patrol said a Lyft driver picked up the wrong passenger from a bar in Tacoma sometime before the crash happened around 3 a.m.

The passenger reportedly became "unruly" and took off his clothes before the Lyft driver pulled over on I-5 near SR18.

The passenger exited the vehicle and was struck by another vehicle traveling northbound before a third vehicle also struck him, according to the Washington State Patrol.

Don’t know how Lyft/Uber works - does the driver get paid before or after delivery?

[moovova]

I-5 isn’t where took want to pull over.

I went to high school in Federal Way, a town named after a federal highway.

Good question.

THAT’S the way to deal with the problem!
Strip off your clothes and wade into oncoming traffic!
That’ll show ‘em!
*rolling eyes*

Nothing good happens at 3am

[ConservativeMind]

Picking up people a little before 3 AM seems a sketchy thing to do.

I feel most bad for the driver.

What’s funny is that the news video is about a 49-year old motorcycle driver, making this quite stoutly guy look like the article’s exhibitionist.

My turf,
There is something called “Natural selection”.
I don’t believe in Evolution, but given the evidence
Natural selection is a pretty viable theory.
Full disclosure;
My dear nephew was rendered a paraplegic due to a collision
on that stretch of road. Fast and Dark with lots of crappy weather.

I heard bath salts made people strip.

Payment is charged to credit card before pickup. So splat man had already paid.

There are plenty of Bible verses about being unruly.

There used to be a nice racquetball facility there.
