DC Residents Shocked by Weird Paving Around Illegally Parked Car

-

A D.C. local posted on Twitter photos showing an unusual pave job that went around an abandoned vehicle and leaving that area unpaved. Residents questioned why the car was not towed ahead of the paving. 

The pictures were shared on Monday by Ward 8 resident Jacque Patterson, who asked “How the hell does @DDOTD pave a whole street, and instead of towing an abandoned car, they pave AROUND it?!?”

The car was parked along the 700 block of Yuma St. Southeast and reportedly had a flat tire, along with a broken window. 

While many Twitter users found the incident funny, some were outraged at the negligence of authorities. Others recalled similar occurences in other places.

D.C. Ward 8 Councilman Trayon White, who was mentioned in Patterson’s post, immediately reacted with a tweet, asking the exact location of the photo, and calling the incident unacceptable.

The District Department of Transportation (DDOT) also responded, saying they were dispatching employees to the address on the Yuma Street.
