I got off work in Downtown DC and was standing at the crosswalk when the guy went zooming by in the wrong direction. I guess he was trying to avoid 1 block of traffic because the traffic was trapped by the light. But, let's get real here. That guy was getting a lot of disgusted looks by pedestrians. We don't need this kind of rep.

As the light changed and the cars started coming at him he zipped onto the sidewalk (which IIRC is not legal in downtown DC).
