The Comair crash reminds me...

So...how'd it go? Ground cleared the plane to taxi to the correct
runway, observed the plane go to the wrong runway, then tower cleared
the plane to depart the right runway, and observed it pull onto the
wrong runway. Anything like that?
Probably not. The runways are not far apart. You have to taxi past the
departure end of runway 26, the wrong runway, to reach the departure end of
runway 22, the right runway. I believe there was just one controller in the
tower.
I hope I'm missing something obvious. Was there dense fog involved?
Lots of other traffic?
The weather observation taken about 13 minutes prior showed six miles
visibility. I don't know if there was other traffic, but probably not a lot
on an early weekend morning.
