Felony traffic cases in King County are increasing at an alarming rate.
In the last four years, traffic felonies have doubled, almost triple the number. The King County Prosecutor’s Office told us, “We’ve charged and are working on more of these cases this year in King County than we ever had before.”
Data we received is data, “from all of the 39 law enforcement agencies in King County,” said Director of Communications for the Prosecuting Attorney’s Office, Casey McNerthney. “The largest ones are Seattle Police and King County Sheriff’s office.” “It really is tragic knowing how preventable these crimes are and having to see firsthand the consequences these crimes have,” said the Deputy Prosecuting Attorney for the Felony Traffic Unit, Adam Eucker.
“There is data that shows collisions and deaths will decrease if the legal limit is lowered from .08 to .05,” said Eucker.
