This IS the answer, actually.


Kids playing around on motor scooters wasn’t a problem until white people started moving in in droves. Now all the sudden they’re a menace

They most definitely do wreck havoc and have hurt people. They killed a dog once.

Last summer one of them popped a wheelie and came down on my husband's car hood, while he sat in it waiting for them to pass. But good advice, PP!

They are a f(*$#ing menace.


Was your husband injured? No. He clearly wasn’t.

Agreed. Maybe this can be defused before it starts?

Hold on there. This will ruin my relationship with my vehicle. I have a long commute and this will make it even more uncomfortable.


Long-distance commuter drives through DC with impunity every day...

That works for me. People would drive and park much more lawfully.

Yes, exactly. They don't enforce DUI because only a tiny percent get caught. When most people who violate the law do so with impunity, that's not enforcement.

Sad to say that you're probably right.


Yep.

This is the logical next step.

OK, now get out of your car, stand on a street corner, and start counting all of the traffic violations you see that aren't enforced.


You must be very naive if you think that every single infraction is going to be penalized.


So actually, there are a lots of traffic violations that don't get enforced. Which was my point.


Statistically, no there aren't. Personal impressions do not count.
