The new (hopefully temporary) lane lines are ridiculous and dangerous. 3 lanes become 2 without warning. A lane will just guide you into oncoming traffic. The lanes will just hard shift over randomly but only about 50% of the people follow them over. Definitely going to be a lot of accidents

Reply to Multiple Children’s Hospitals Are At Or Near Capacity Across D.C., Maryland, and Virginia by Maxcactus
Unfortunately Covid taught the MBAs that run hospitals that providing life saving treatments to everyone in your community doesn’t make a lot of money. You make even less money for kids.
They are all trying to tailor their hospitals to focus on expensive, elective surgeries that only wealthier people with good insurance can afford.
So expect more stories like this in the years to come

Reply to comment by Existing365Chocolate in I'm legit scared of people in cars these days. Why does it feel like society is breaking down? by MintyLacroix
I often walk through an intersection that always has a police presence and cars still will scream through a stop sign at 40 miles an hour (25 zone) almost hitting me and my dog, and the cops don’t do shit. It’s happened twice in the last two weeks. I really don’t understand it.
I’ve already tailored my walk to avoid dangerous intersections, but I can’t avoid this one.
