Two weeks before a teen girl was struck by a car and seriously injured in Ballston, a local resident tweeted a video of a car blowing by him as he crossed in the same crosswalk.
The resident tweeted the video at police, asking for more crosswalk enforcement.
Today, he and others are saying that police do not adequately enforce traffic laws to keep pedestrians safe.
@ARLnowDOTcom this is what happens when @ArlingtonVaPD does not enforce pedestrian crossings: https://t.co/V7JHBBsMGb. Warned them 2 wks ago

@ARLnowDOTcom @Rosslyn_DC Are you serious? I walk everywhere in Arlington. Marked crosswalks are completely ignored by most drivers.
