We drove up to Suncadia last night about 6:30 and saw a woman trying to cross the freeway in the eastbound lanes near the pass, wearing just shorts and a tube top) and then at about 8 on our way home when we saw the ambulance and the car on the left shoulder (the police hadn’t arrived yet) and my first thought was I hope it wasn’t her. ;-(
