That's interesting, pretty copy traffic complaint, wrongway driver on the parkway heading northbound on 97 and the parkway half, mouthful 138. It's going to be a Hyundai Sonata. We've got OSP and Benpppd looking for it. Vehicle should be, I think, gray in color. Again, this is a wrongway driver, northbound 97 and milepost 138. It's dashed 31145[1]. Trying to get that rolling driver. Sounds like the RFU is now following them. I think they are currently going the right way on the highway.
