You're lucky! I drive to NoVA twice a week. I've seen some really aggressive drivers (weaving, speeding, tailgating). No guns fortunately, but I still breath a sigh of relief when I get to the office in one piece. I go in really early and with less cars on the road, it's speed racer central some days. edit: And not lucky about seeing guns waved around, yikes!

Ah, the only pic I see is of people boarding a bus. I read the article and thought "relatable". What color her skin might be didn't really cross my mind because this is an every person who has to ride the bus story (or chooses to as many advocate for in lieu of cars). Google stalking her didn't cross my mind. Edit: because my grammar sucks sometimes.

How do you know she is white? Did I miss something? I think middle class can be inferred based on job description. I'm assuming (maybe incorrectly) that this is one of the people that they asked to send in tips as part of the Better Baltimore series; follow up maybe?

We've been to Quarantine Rd a few times (drywall, 2x4's, cabinets, etc) and they just wave us in and point us where to go (the back in spaces with dumpsters). Don't even bother to look in the bed of the truck or ask for my ID even though I'm in my friend's pickup truck with out-of-state plates, which I think is odd. We always go on a Saturday, not sure if that makes a difference.
