hahaha, be glad you don't live in DC. we have a billion of those things, i drive through them all the time. and they're HUGE, too, like 5 or 6 MAIN streets... when i go out into Maryland, i see the little ones that are two streets, and i am forced to laugh. yes, i am glad to be alive every time i get out of one of those things... and i don't even drive yet!!!!!
