[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ugh— I cannot sleep currently due to the constant drag racing in front of ky house. We live on a state  Ave, and have for nearly 20 years. This drag raving, as well as the ATV militias that take over the streets, are going to push our family out. No, dc should not be more car friendly. There should be tool booths and police guards surrounding the city so we keep these law breakers and freeloaders out! DC is not just a city, or the capital, it’s our home. The people who choose to live here get no respect. If half of the parking ticket writing force (that victimizes solely dc residents by the way, since out of towners dont pay) were deployed to deter speeding vehicles, we wouldnt be in this bind!

I’m sorry but you are lying. You must read about the ATVs on Reddit or something. But I can assure you that there are no big groups out riding ATBs anywhere in this city at 3 AM. You must be on the West Coast pretending to live here. [/quote]

No im not. I live near U street and wide awake. There are atv militias all over downtown. But right now it’s vehicles with souped up engines racing through. The atvs like to come out during rush hour. More pedestrians and commuters to terrify.[/quote]
Are you telling me that you consider U Street “downtown”? You also said that you live on a “state Avenue”. Now which one would that be with ATV riders around U street?

Not PP, but Florida or Georgia. [/quote]
Georgia Avenue at U St is the Shaw neighborhood. The only “state Avenues” in the U St neighborhood are Florida and New Hampshire and I’d recommend checking the location of the police station.

So we have a liar and a person covering for a liar. Good times on DCUM. [/quote]

I live on nj ave. wtf with calling me a troll? are you a lobbyist for the atv riders? what's your angle, exactly? You're telling me I don't hear insane amounts of noise in my house and that I don't live downtown? OK?[/quote]

This is no doubt the same PP who claims:
1.  Nobody ever speeds excessively in DC
2.  The only way to create urban density and a strong economy is through more roads and more car dependence, just like Manhattan, that well-known car-dependent city
3.  Pedestrianized areas spell doom for the city. The Wharf is just single-handedly killing DC retail. [/quote]
It’s weird to me that people who want to DC to have Manhattan level density and refuse to acknowledge what Manhattan is.
