hahaha bless MGM Roast Beef for keeping an excellent sense of humor through it all:
“We’re still closed.
Whoever started the rumor that we have a drive through window around back is wrong!
Can’t wait to re-open!
STAY TUNED FOR UPDATES!”

Thanks to Beth for sending around noon yesterday:
“Someone not only turned onto the streetcar bridge but kept driving until he hit the literal tracks.”
Most folks thought Lyft/Uber driver but I’m going with following the GPS given the Alabama license plates.
Thanks to sapientpig for sending around 5:30pm Thursday.
A reader reports:
“So a drunk ass driver ran 2 red lights, hit 3 cars in front of cops who didn’t do much (until calls to 911 started, and people flagged them down) last night, and hit 3 cars total before hitting the curb to a stop. cars hit were on 2900 block of Georgia Ave, NW. finally hit a curb and stopped on the corner or Georgia and Girard.

“Dear PoPville,
Yesterday while driving to work on the BW Parkway, I had the absolute scariest experience of my life. Without reliving it, I will just say that this fellow driver should not be allowed to drive– this was not your standard speeding, or tailgating, or merging when you shouldn’t, or just being a “Maryland driver” that we all love to hate. This was intentional insanity with no regards to my safety, any other driver’s safety, or quite frankly, his own. I was very lucky that I emerged unscathed from his two attempts to cause an accident with my car, but I am incredibly concerned that he is still on the road.
My question is this: is there a way to report drivers like this? (more…)

“Dear PoPville,
Yesterday around 8:15 a.m., a dump truck going fast downhill toward a 33 bus stopped at Wisconsin and 34th Street veered off the road and onto the sidewalk, barreling across the sidewalk in front of Hardy Middle School and narrowly missing several pedestrians who scattered to get out of its way. The driver of the truck then briefly stopped on 34th and then continued southward. I called 911, as did others on the scene (I think). It’s unclear whether the driver lost control or drove into the sidewalk intentionally. No idea if police ever stopped the driver.”
3600 block of Connecticut Ave, NW
Thanks to Joanna for sending:
“Saw this on my way to the Cleveland Park metro this morning. They knocked over pillars belong to The Broadmoor apartments near Adas Israel. Yikes.” (more…)
Thanks to Raymondo for reporting from Wisconsin Ave at Brandywine around 6:30am:
“Driver crossed lanes, jumped curb, took out tree and guardrail. Landed in CVS parking lot.” (more…)
