If you wonder why I hate DC cabbies, look no further than this empty Executive Cab parked in front of a fire hydrant right on Dupont Circle. There are some rules that are so completely universal, I lose all sympathy for people who break them. This is one: Never, ever, ever block a fire hydrant. Ever.
It’s just lame. I dont care if the cab stand at Jurys was full, you don’t just block a fire hydrant, slam it in park and walk off to get a coffee.
Here’s hoping you enjoy that giant ticket.

I live and work in the District of Columbia. I write at We Love DC, a blog I helped start, I work at Technolutionary, a company I helped start, and I’m happy doing both. I enjoy watching baseball, cooking, and gardening. I grow a mean pepper, keep a clean scorebook, and wash the dishes when I’m done. Read Why I Love DC.
