Slow Streets is over! Yay!

All of the Slow Streets signs should be removed by now. Good riddance.

Just in time for someone to drive into a person on the sidewalk and kill them.

Every street is a slow street

Big defeat for the anti-car folks.

One result of the pandemic is that a lot of people in our NW DC neighborhood walk and bike in the side streets now. So, slow down, drivers! And if you don't, we'll get some of those really high speed bumps.

Use your intelligence. I'm all for road sharing but walkers...use the sidewalks. Bikes in the street fine. Runners fine too. But walkers - especially three abreast so busy chatting they aren't paying attention, dogs on long leashes, or that one old guy who likes to walk in the middle of the street on an erratic path with headphones on - get to the sidewalk. You no longer have to fear dying by sharing air with someone else.

Yes, drivers should slow down. And especially use the Stop signs - my pet peeve - I feel like my kids are in much more danger there. HATE speed bumps. If you get them - I'll honk everytime I go over. You still live in a city - be a polite pedestrian. You'll suffer far more if a car hits you.

Let's all squeal our tires on a former Slow Street in celebration! (Kidding).

If they are no longer show streets then obviously they are fast streets. I'll be sure to mention that next time I appeal by DC traffic infraction.... if y'all ever start ticketing again anyways.

Street walkers drive me crazy. The other day on one of the major streets in our neighborhood a dad was pushing a stroller right down the street. Next to the sidewalk, of course. No. Not appropriate.

People like their cars.

Yes they do. I certainly like having my car, even if I don’t even drive all that much.
