I'm probably not the best source for personal experience, but @movement, the only "accident" I've been in in the last 14 years was bumping bumpers with someone in a parking lot. We were both backing out of parking spots on opposite sides of a giant SUV in opposite directions, and neither of us could see the other until we bumped. Fortunately there was no damage or injury, but it was neither mechanical failure nor weather conditions, we simply couldn't see each other. Sometimes, stuff happens.

I'm sorry you haven't seen the enforcement, Rob. The traffic control officer I spoke of is at Penn/E/14th NW, and the cop I spoke of frequently stations himself between Constitution and Pennsylvania on 14th. The cop who gave me a verbal warning was somewhere in Georgetown, can't quite place the cross street these days but I was on M, and the cop who stopped and watched me was on the corner of 4th near Constitution NE. In other words, I have witnessed enforcement in various places around the city. Do I wish it was better? Sure. But it does happen to some extent even today.
