On this #WorldCarFreeDay we need to reflect why in #carfreemetroDC#PrinceGeorgesProud is so car dependent: in 2023 our county leadership continues car-centric development under pretenses of TOD tossing away opportunities and precious resources.
This 7-Eleven Gas Station, recently approved by @PGPlanningBoard, will be half the walk to the WMATA Blue line "Downtown" Largo metro station than the proposed Transit Oriented Development Youth Sports Fieldhouse. #PrinceGeorgesProud
Good Sept 30 morning @311DCgov we have the usual situation in front of the Veterans Affairs at 1500 I st NE: illegal parking during rush hour by @USGSA truck "G71 0372U", commercial MD 6FL5836, and commercial DC C81815
Good Sept 18th morning @311DCgov we have the unusual situation in front of the Veterans Affairs at 1500 I St NW: illegal parking during rush hour by @USGSA unoccupied van license plate "G41 1668 V"
(cyclists are really pissed at traffic locking up the preceding intersection)
... it's a heck of a gridlock for a few blocks up I street NW thanks to the @wmata private bus lane and the @USGSA illegal parking 3-4 lanes of traffic funnel into 1 lane.
Friday night @wmata nostalgia: 8 years ago we got to ride the very first Metro car # 1000, on a regular commute. That carpeting thought.. Does anyone else remember?

Good morning @311DCgov we have the usual situation in front of the @USGSA Veterans Health Administration, 15th block of I st NW: illegal parking during No Standing or Parking timeframe. The tag involved is a Federal GSA 0372 licence plate. The other truck appears UNLICENSED.
@coachbuckethead@SafeSidewalksDC@DC_OCA A ticket for a moving violation issued by an actual law enforcement officer still adversely impacts insurance renewal rates.
When expectations match reality: this Honda Crosstour has been swerving lanes the entirety of H st corridor like it's an F1 race (which they were losing because slow and steady wins it in commuter traffic). Now, we're parked and we look them up:
On this day in 1971 - NPS and the DC Highway Department turned one lane of Rock Creek Parkway and Virginia Avenue into a bike lane as part of a two week experiment.
Can you read this plate? Most likely neither can @DDOTDC ATE cameras. Deploying countermeasures is a rational free market response in the absence of an actual traffic enforcement.
Watching from behind this lifted pick-up truck's suspension eloquently articulate its purpose on DC streets β to soak up with ease the countless @DDOTDC potholes β, one must reevaluate one's life priorities that lead to purchasing a sedan. π€¦ββοΈπ€¦π€¦ββοΈ
Question for @MDSHA professionals: How fast does a sedan need to travel to flip? This is a 35mph segment of MD-214 Central Avenue. The crash appears to be investigated by @SPPDNews multiple vehicles involved
