[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A woman crossing on Viers Mill not too far from this spot was hit and died of her injuries this week.  [/quote]

And July 2025: 
"A mother was on her way home from work, crossing Veirs Mill Road within sight of her front door Saturday, when she was hit and killed in Montgomery County, Maryland." [/quote]

There have been 5 fatalities in this small area of North Kensington/Wheaton since May. Three were in just over 3 weeks in May/June and 2 more in 3 days last week. Go back 18 months and you can add another one. [/quote]

Why are you combining the two?  They have nothing to do with each other.  Viers Mill and Ennals is in the heart of commercial Wheaton.

Your Ahab like obsession HARMS efforts to make the community better and safer.[/quote]

You clearly don't live in the area. People who do spend time in both Wheaton and North Kensington and both suffer from unsafe pedestrian crossings.[/quote]

I do and that's why I know that they are completely different situations.  Although I've never distinguished between North and South Kensington so I guess I'm just out of your loop.[/quote]

Curious, not confrontational. How do you distinguish between the two areas or have you just never had a need to? Like to explain there are speed cameras on Connecticut in one section but not the other. [/quote]

Oh, I get it now.  This is a nascent "North Bethesda" situation.

I've never had a need to distinguish and since official Kensington is small I call all those unincorporated areas by whichever place they are closer to and add a landmark.  ie: Kensington near Kaiser or Kensington near the Mormon Temple.
