Cops under the Humpback Bridge

[5555624]

Who needs police motorcycles on the trails, when you can have a squad car?

This morning, since the NPS has blocked off Ohio Drive, instead of crossing Memorial Bridge and riding down Ohio Drive to the Jefferson memorial, I headed across Columbia Island to the MVT and the George Mason Memorial Bridge. Around 3:00 a.m., just as I am about to enter the northern tunnel under the Humpback Bridge, a police car comes out the southern tunnel. It was moving slowly and no flashing lights, so it did not appear to be in pursuit of anyone. (Not that I saw anyone.) I should have stopped to see where it went, but rode on.

Normally, I only take that route to work maybe twice a month or so, but I might need to take that route more often and see what’s going on.

I saw a police cruiser were down today at around 2pm. I didn’t have time to investigate, but there were a bunch of people there too. Seemed odd.
