To be clear, these protests are serious traffic and transit concerns. It's just that we have similarly problematic traffic and transit concerns fairly regularly around here. Protests or no protests, check a traffic report.
Well, last night was more special than usual. A lot more special than a bad multi-car accident (primarily because of how unpredictable things were). I certainly wouldn't want to be caught up in it, because of the rogue opportunists.
Probably one more night, and then a good rainstorm will hopefully quiet things down.
