You're probably faster than Seattle's slowest bus

King County Metro’s 8 bus line is rarely on time. 

The bus runs behind schedule so often that regulars have nicknamed the eight bus the “The L8.”

To draw attention, they recently challenged 8 riders to come up with fun ways to race the bus through one of its slowest sections. 

We’ll hear from jugglers, leapfroggers, and more.
