[quote=Anonymous]We live on a busy, cut-through street with a double yellow line. It's in Falls Church. We bought the house before having kids. It was somewhat of a deterrent but it was what we could afford, and the location had/has other positive qualities. Now that we have a kid, I would really love to live on a quieter street. It's an issue to use the front yard. I always have to be on the look-out for crazy drivers. Everyone always speeds and several times drivers have rear-ended cars parked on the street. Also have the problem with d-bags throwing trash out their car windows. (Who does that?) Also lots of cigarette butts. Hard to have the windows open at night because of the noise level. Ummm, lets see, we also get a lot of people parking on the street who then get into other cars and leave the area. I don't think these people live in the neighborhood. I think they are commuters and use our street for parking.

Anyway, those are some of the negatives. I'm sure every busy street has it's own unique character though!  I'd say if you're already concerned about the traffic, look elsewhere. It will only get MORE annoying once you move into the house.[/quote]
