Shame we can't edit the title since the 2023 total was closer to 1,000, with 7 THOUSAND cars STOLEN. Surely insurance companies are going to start reacting to this. It's not sustainable. DC is 64 sq miles, I believe, carjackings and auto thefts (thefts from autos are also a huge issue) take place in every ward. I know several people in Forest Hills and AU Park who have had locked cars (not Korean) stolen in the past year.

Laws matter as do enforcing penalties. The Council, USA Graves and AGs Racine and Shwab have driven a once thriving city into the ground and groomed a generation to not go to school but to prey on people. Bowser's lax services and poor oversight of juveniles (kids held at DCYRS are given Call of Duty and GTA to pass the time, level up when out, and very little education or services) also play a role.

Logging in for online school and doing their homework? No, they were out on the streets getting groomed to do exactly what they are doing now.

And I had to wait 4 months to get the vax so these young scholars could get it before me.

If you tried to go out of town to get it Elissa Silverman’s staff wanted to doxx you and have you arrested.

950 isn’t really that bad.

3 a day? I know someone who has been carjacked twice. That is not normal.

Members of the DC council have publicly stated there is no crisis.

WTF are you talking about? Are you really this stupid? It was in the 400s last and 200s in recent memory.

These are violent crimes conducted at gunpoint. 950 is an absolute disaster.

I thought we were told that there is no "crime crisis" and that businesses and workers would thrive under the new law?

Crime is a factor but let's not blame crime solely. Many of these places are closed because DC decided to be fully closed for 2 years and now with people working from home that has sank many restaurant revenues, the crime is the cherry on top. It's not the main ingredient. The city should have been blamed for the 2 year closure first and foremost. Florida, South Carolina and Georgia managed to be fully open while have signage posted about masks and social distancing.

Vision Zero and Zero COVID. A winning combination.

Leave vision zero out. 50 traffic deaths in DC this year.

How many related to car jackings or other criminal activity?

It's an unattainable goal unless you ban all vehicular traffic. I gather that's the obsession with bike lanes.
