Stack of NO STANDING ANY TIME, 2-HOUR, and NO PARKING signs on a single pole on 15th St NW near Logan Circle. The signage authorizes parking right up against the crosswalk -- DDOT is creating the daylighting violation through its own sign placement.

01What is wrong here

Stack of NO STANDING ANY TIME, 2-HOUR, and NO PARKING signs on a single pole on 15th St NW near Logan Circle. The vehicle in this photo is parked exactly where the signage permits, well inside the 40-foot intersection setback that 18 DCMR 2405.2(c) requires. The violation is in the sign placement, not the driver's behavior. The 15th St NW corridor carries heavy commuter cycling and pedestrian traffic; restoring the setback is a basic safety fix.
