[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In 2018, there were about 4.1 million vehicles in the DMV area ([url=https://www.mwcog.org/newsroom/2018/03/13/vehicle-census-shows-whats-on-our-regions-roads-fleet-mix-electric-vehicles-visualize-2045/#:~:text=The%20analysis%20covers%20the%20District,on%20December%202016%20registration%20data.&text=There%20are%20now%20about%204.1,from%203.89%20million%20in%202014.]link[/url]).  So while 900 sounds like a lot its really only 0.022% of vehicles - and each of those vehicles are driven frequently, so as a percent of trips its infinitesimally small.  Seems really small and like its not something we should be worried about.[/quote]

You seem to be suggesting that there is a significant percentage of those vehicles on the road in given day. We don't have enough roads for that. DC ranks lowest for average miles driven per year.

DC drivers really aren't on the road that much, about 12 miles a day. [/quote]
