DC Traffic Thread 🚨🚦🚧⚠️🏁

I just drove across DC 🏎

From what I can see, major arteries into the city are open 🚦

BUT access to the Capitol/White House/Freedom Plaza areas are mostly restricted for unauthorized car traffic within 4-5 blocks ⚠️
For access to White House/Freedom Plaza area, K street is still open for now, although anything south of there is blocked from car traffic 🚧
