Description

The intersection of 39th St NW and Reno Rd NW, especially when approached on 39th St NW from the north, is so dangerous that accidents and near-accidents are a daily occurrence (actually, many times per day). Sightlines are so bad that drivers must creep out into Reno Rd or else risk a high-speed side collision. Either a yellow or red light needs to be put at the intersection, or at least extra caution signs. I have complained to the city--and to police, ambulance, traffic officials at accidents, DMV, city council's office, etc.--for a decade but nothing has been done. All the city officials need to do to verify this info is to interview residents who live near the intersection (as do I); consult accident records; and try driving the intersection themselves.
