“Dear PoPville,
saw 2 cars getting booted in NW this morning. Looked like MD plates on both of them. I’ve heard DC has been struggling to enforce tickets/fines on out of town drivers – perhaps this is a step in the right direction?”
You may run but you can’t hide. Daily DPW tickets vehicles and boots and tows vehicles with three or more outstanding tickets. We’ve even found a car w/ more than $70K in tickets. If your car is parked on a DC street w/ tickets and violations sooner or later we will find you. pic.twitter.com/mbNjGSXJMk

And in other car wheel news:
Thanks to V. for sending from Mount Pleasant: “All 4 wheels and a smashed window to boot. Police are notifying the owner.”
It had been 7 days since our last stolen wheels report. You can see some MPD suggestions on ways to prevent a Helluva Way to Wake Up here.

We’re about a month out from summer. That means you’ve still got time for spring cleaning!
Lexi Grant, an operations manager at Well-Paid Maids, shared her go-to spring cleaning tips with WTOP News. Step one? Declutter. Get rid of items you don’t use, find space for items that need a home and organize those areas.
Then, it’s time to dust. Lexi starts with high-touch surface areas (think: refrigerator, dishwasher, counters, microwave). One area she sees often neglected is the bedroom — and it makes sense. Heavy furniture is difficult to move around, but it’s important to really get in there so dust doesn’t affect your sleep.
