Wouldn’t it be nice if the folks that enforce the law actually knew what the law was? As per DC law, cyclists are allowed to ride on public sidewalks except in the Central Business District. #bikedc DC Police Department

For the Oversight pile, CM Allen's Team: Yrs of 311s, direct appeals to DDOT DC, to make it impossible for anything but active emerg or authd svc vehicles to enter this cycletrack. Their half measures are not acceptable. This must be resolved for cyclist safety. #bikedc

what’s actually racist is that so many traffic deaths occur in minority neighborhoods due to unsafe road designs and reckless driving speed cameras that encourage safer driving in those neighborhoods are anti-racist

Yeesh. This is pretty bad. Clearly, enforcement measures aren’t being used, or aren’t working on G St NW w/ how often this happens. We need a DC311 photo-submission enforcement program. DDOT DC #BikeDC #SafeStreets

A maroon Nissan Altima was seen driving at speed down the protected bike lane of 15th St NW at Madison Dr. The submitting cyclist reports they had to scramble onto the curb to avoid being struck by the oncoming vehicle. We need better enforcement. DC311 #bikeDC #SafeStreets

This driver reversed without looking and hit my bike (at a standstill behind him) with my kids inside. I shouted, honked and screamed but nothing registered until he was pushing against my front panel When he realized - he sped off #bikedc DC Police Department

💯 On Monday, a child was struck in a crosswalk in Ward 6 by a driver swerving around a car at 🚦, leaving her with broken toes & tire marks on her leg. He was simply issued a ticket, even with his 80+ speeding tickets/$18K+ in fines he owes. He shouldn’t be driving in DC. 1/2

Thank you to everyone who acted quickly this evening to stop an auto driver on the Metropolitan Branch Trail and direct them off before anyone got hurt. This is happening all too frequently and I plan on pressing DDOT DC for barriers and other MBT safety enhancements.

If the mopeds zipping by on the MBT weren’t bad enough—the fact that this has now happened multiple times with *cars* really ought to get DDOT DC to deploy barriers beyond simple flexposts. #SafeStreets #BikeDC

Interesting update: It looks like the same car that this Maryland driver hit a 12-year-old girl with has been racking up more traffic offenses since we last checked in the fall. It could have been another driver behind the wheel, but the car now has $30k in unpaid tickets.

Booted the account up for this one. Reposted from r/BikeDC. User reports that the driver charged at them repeatedly a day ago in the protected double bike lane 31st + Water St NW. Same day a pedestrian was killed by a reckless driver on our streets. #BikeDC #SafeStreets
