[quote=Anonymous]NP here. I have to agree with PP that there are just too many people who run or walk (casually, even!) into the street in DC. It's insane -- I'll be driving on say, K St, and someone will walk right through traffic instead of going 20 yards down to the crosswalk and waiting for the signal. I know this woman was running for a bus and not just crossing traffic (but that's even worse). I have to admit, though, once I almost got hit by a fire truck on K St. Our building had a fire alarm go off and we all rushed outside (it was right after 9/11) and people spilled onto the street (one of the side roads for turns). I wasn't paying enough attention and nearly stepped in front of a fire truck rushing to the building. Scary, it can happen to anyone, not [i]just[/i] people who take silly risks by constantly walking/running in traffic. I feel very sad for this woman and her family -- no one should have to lose their life over an accident like this.[/quote]
