Reply to I will visit WA in late August/September. Should I be concerned about wildfires? by John_Martson_isalive
Yes, they're are going to happen, you just don't know where. It's not everywhere but it's always somewhere.

Rather than Vancouver I'd suggest OP take a look at Longview/Kelso because housing is going to be much less expensive, a better selection and better quality and they will probably find more of a community there than Portland's bedroom, Vancouver. More about Vancouver's housing: the supply of new homes is very low and quite frankly what is primarily being built are let's say, "units" trying to maximize density without providing walking spaces or parks and even these are being sold at Portland prices. It's probably been a long time since Vancouver would win a beauty contest but what's happening right now is really tragic.

Ferry County is one of Washington's least populated with 7,200 people ( 1/8th the population of Seattle's Capitol Hill neighborhood) and with the State's highest percentage of American Indian residents at 17.1 percent. The random stats here speak volumes to the effects of rural and Native American neglect and abuse by both the State and Federal governments.

Exactly, I've lived on both sides and if you're going East with the headspace that everyone there is anti-woke then that's a great opportunity to rethink your news sources.

You know, folks are mixed from all over. Plenty of streets in North Carolina lined with Yankees just like it seems most people in Seattle are from somewhere else. I'd say just read the room.

Y'all forget there is half a state below Olympia. Cowlitz and Wahkiakum County are Joe Kent Country. Yeehaw!

Yes, she can be on the title without a driver's license. She will also be on the registration as an owner. This is a bad idea.

So long as the light is green or yellow when you enter the intersection you are correct.

Going to help out a lost redditor. Martin's Tavern in Georgetown might not be exactly what you want if you are looking for a midwest-style steakhouse with that deep bourbon smell and massive steaks with baked potatoes and happy chattering people. No, it isn't that, but it is a Georgetown institution with its own history and elegant style - a great place for breakfast and lunch and Ben Bradlee spent a many a night in his favorite booth nursing a late night meal with Bob Woodward.

You are not alone and in many places you would be correct. Road rules can vary in small but significant ways from State to State and people naturally just follow what they were taught/told although the rule where they now live is different. In both Oregon and California you would be correct and I would get a ticket. Here is nice breakdown of the issue that Puget Sound Public Safety put out a few years ago:
YELLOW LIGHT: What does a steady yellow light mean in a traffic control signal in Washington? The law (RCW 46.61.055) says that a driver facing a steady yellow light is hereby warned that the green light is being terminated or that the red light will immediately follow which is when traffic shall not enter the intersection. You can enter the intersection when the light is Yellow but you cannot enter the intersection after the light turns red.
Washington, like 37 other states with “permissive yellow” rules, drivers can legally enter an intersection during the entire yellow interval, and a violation occurs if a driver enters the intersection after the onset of red. In the other states that have a “restrictive yellow” rule, drivers can neither enter nor be in the intersection on a red, and a violation occurs if a driver has not cleared the intersection after the onset of red.
How long a yellow light remains steady is depended upon the speed limit of the road. In a yellow light study done in Seattle the average light was 3.5 seconds. The Federal Highway Administration recommends the following yellow light times:
25 MPH - - 3.0 Seconds 30 MPH - - 3.5 Seconds
35 MPH - - 4.0 Seconds 40 MPH - - 4.5 Seconds
45 MPH - - 5.0 Seconds 50 MPH - - 5.5 Seconds
55 MPH - - 6.0 Seconds

In Washington a driver may enter an intersection on a solid yellow light and it is of no significance if the light turns red before the vehicle exits the intersection. RCW 46.61.055. If you choose to challenge the infraction your likely to prevail on these facts.

Reply to How to file a formal legal complaint to Washington state against a landlord company? by SnooMemesjellies7591
There isn’t a general State agency like the one you are asking about, it would depend on the nature of the management company’s action or inaction. For example for a fraud or disabilities discrimination you could contact the Attorney General’s office. If the problem is noncompliance with a lease agreement you would petition the Court.

I believe so because you are a military dependent who has been continuously enrolled in a degree program but don’t rely on anything Reddit tells you. Check with an admissions officer of the schools you apply to. The applicable law is here:

Look at your lease, first. Where the lease is silent you look to landlord tenant law. In Washington the landlord has a duty to mitigate, which simply means if they lease to someone else you don’t have to pay rent for the time period the apartment is occupied; the can’t “double dip.” Obviously, if you can find a sublessor or someone to take over the lease it is to your benefit. Also, an eviction takes time and is costly so if you want to play hardball offer them something like 4k and say “take it or evict me.” They can always tell you to go choke, of course. Also, your municipality may have specific other lease limitations, especially Seattle/ Puget Sound.
