"That sandwich hasn't exploded at all, has it?" defense asks.
"It looks like a little bit is coming out towards the bottom," Lairmore replies.
I never understand why this one residential stretch of VT Ave NW- just south of Logan Circle- always has so many cars in bike lanes #bikedc

Cyclists in DC can treat the pedestrian WALK sign as a green light during "leading pedestrian intervals" (LPI). But this creates a safety hazard when drivers race through the intersection several seconds after their light has turned red #bikedc www.youtube.com/watch?v=12Rl...
