In this case protocol for turns and speed were thrown out. The motorcade through Dallas was supposed to go through the center of Dealey Plaza along Main Street, but to get to the Trade Mart it would have had to cross a median to get to the Stemmons Freeway.

The decision was made to make the two turns, one on Hudson and then a greater than 90 degree on Elm St, both of which are against SS policy, and connects directly to the Stemmons Frwy.

The route had been published a few days before.

There is no route from Main St to the freeway. You say it would have had to cross a median, like it was a choice. It would have had to jump the curb and drive over a raised divider.

Thanx. I knew the second part.
