[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This makes me SO angry.  I live in the neighborhood and am sick of cars speeding through not caring that it's a pedestrian neighborhood.  I hope to GOD that child is ok and the driver gets punished![/quote]

Constitution is a MAJOR westbound COMMUTING ROUTE from Maryland. DC has not done anything to establish commuting routes and keep people out of neighborhoods. In fact, I contend that no systemic urban planning has occurred to account for commuter traffic-aside from the highway upgrades. It is a major problem, with no end in sight. The solutions seem to be piecemeal and just puts traffic on to different neighborhood streets. Pennsylvania Avenue, east of the Anacostia, major commuter/pseudo neighborhood DDOT, between Branch Ave and the Sousa Bridge took a lane to create a divided Main Street. Maryland Ave from 15th St, NE to 6th St, NE again major commuting route but instead of facilitating traffic flow, medians were erected, traffic flow restricted. I am not defending people speeding through the neighborhoods- but this is a systemic problem.[/quote]
