NCDOT alert blames traffic on ‘Women Drivers, Rain, Obama Care’
The North Carolina Dept. of Transportation (NCDOT) alerted residents on Wednesday that traffic conditions were suffering because of ‘Women Drivers, Rain, Obama Care.’
****.
“Women Drivers, Rain, Obama Care,” the message said. “Stay Home.”
“We did not get hacked,” NCDOT spokesperson Mike Charbonneau confirmed on Wednesday afternoon. “After an investigation this afternoon we learned that an (information technology) contractor who was hired six months ago was performing routine tests on the TIMS feed. And that individual violated procedures by failing to turn off the external feed while testing, and for the inappropriate message content.”
Charbonneau said that the contractor was immediately fired.
