Nice parking job, asshat.

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.

    That’s true, Don, there’s a decent chance it doesn’t work anyhow.

    Sigh. That’s another post all together.
