Thanks for looking, Chris.

In looking closely at the moving auto in this image, I noticed that, 
rather than a blur, it appears as four superimposed images. Curious 
about the sodium vapor street light, I did a search and found that these 
lights have a flicker frequency of 120 Hz. Hence, in 1/30 of a second, I 
got four images.  Makes sense now, but sure puzzled me for a while. :-)
