Street View 12th Ave find: Angry cop and construction dude

In Google StreetView. Any idea what they are “discussing”?

Can’t embed here (wish I could!), so you’ll have to click:
cop and dude “discussing”

Update from jseattle: We have a solution to allow anybody to embed that we’re ready to roll out any day now. In meantime, I can do it for you. Here’s your Street View find from 12th Ave E. Looks like a meter maid is doing some lecturing!

A little hard to tell at the limited resolution, but the uniformed man doesn’t look quite like a Police Officer to me. I don’t recall SPD officers wearing caps like that: they typically wear a flat-topped hat with a distinctive brim. I suspect he’s a private security officer.

Most telling: the color of the shoulder badge is all wrong: SPD’s badge has a lot of yellow in it and the one in the picture has none. Example of SPD uniform may be seen here http://tinyurl.com/628xqt or at http://www.seattle.gov/police/

Has anyone else found themselves on Street View? I remember seeing the street view car driving past me while I was walking to work one day so I remembered where I was, and sure enough, there I am… just North of Bellevue and E Loretta, on the west side of the street.

3 people in the Street View. Only one’s looking at the camera, and he looks plausibly like cheesecake: http://www.dalbright.com/ (assuming that’s him behind the camera in the center picture). That’s where my CHS earnings to date are wagered!

yep I’m the one looking directly at the camera, right above the silver Jetta.
