Automotive Deathmatch: Metrobus vs. Illegally-parked Car
If D.C.'s exorbitant parking fines weren't enough to keep you from parking illegally in the city, this should. While walking north of Dupont Circle on friday, we came upon this scene:
One of WMATA's short metrobuses was trying to turn into the circle off of Connecticut Avenue. This idiot had parked illegally in front of the Riggs Bank and was blocking the space needed to turn, but apparently the WMATA driver decided she could make it...and proceeded to rip the front of the car off.
Consider this a DCSOB public service announcement. If you drive in D.C., don't park your car illegally at the end of the street. If a Metrobus takes you on, you're definitely going to lose.
