Washington State Ferries address line cutting during busy summer season

Some drivers are getting cut off while waiting to catch a ferry, even as the state ferry system and state patrol launched a program to keep this from happening. Washington State Ferries says while it's unclear if it’s happening more than usual this summer, more people seem to be noticing and are getting fired up about it. They’re urging people to wait their turn, and for everyone to keep safety in mind.

People waiting in the line to get on the ferry from Edmonds to Kingston on Sunday told KOMO that in general, they know to expect long wait times because of short staffing and the busy tourist season. That makes it all the more frustrating if and when they see someone trying to sneak past them.

But, a ferry system spokesperson said it’s the time of year when some drivers who aren’t so patient will cut the line.

“There’s just that small group of people out there that really infuriate the rest of us and eventually they do get caught but it takes a while to get there,” WA State Ferries Spokesperson Ian Sterling stated.
