[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Did you know that according to DC Law any midblock crossing where there is a stop sign is to be treated as a crosswalk even if it isn't marked? I know this because I live one block from an ES and we tried to have a crosswalk put down. DDOT told us it was a legal crossing even if it wasn't marked. Who cares if a kid gets hit or killed, the crossing was legal so their job was done I guess???!!! Funniest part was the reason they claimed they couldn't put down crosswalk was that there wasn't an ADA curb ramp so they couldn't put down the paint. Vision Zero my a**. One block from an ES. One block from where a little girl was killed in a similar unmarked midblock crossing a few years earlier.[/quote] Do you think Maryland drivers GAF?! They don’t. They speed through the neighborhood completely indifferent to the children and families living in it. The traffic on 16th St has become a nightmare. Completely unsustainable. [/quote]
