@ND -- Your wish is my command. First among 7 "high-incidence" areas identified in a study by the County.

http://www.montgomerycountymd.gov/content/DOT/Dir/pedsafety/pdf/randolph_prsavhb_09_16_2011.pdf

The area is defined to include this stretch of Randolph, extending a block in either direction of the intersection. There were 15 incidents between '04 and '08, and I'd bet the rate of incidents has gone up since then. Most of hte pedestrians hti there are Latino. While one look around would convince you that this is because almost every pedestrian at this intersection is Latino, the County decided that there might be either language or cultural reasons for this, and insisted the ESOL classes include instruction on pedestrian safety.
