<div id="ygrps-yiv-242930298">I have a woman in my office who, a month ago, got into a car<br/>
&quot;accident&quot; (was forced off the road) at the border near the spot<br/>
mentioned by the author of the comment I posted - she went to the D C.<br/>
police department, and they had to show here a map of the expressway<br/>
interchange at that spot.  When she said &quot;I just got onto to ramp&quot;,<br/>
the policeman said, &quot;On the ramp?  You were already in Maryland at<br/>
that point&quot;.  She had to go to MD to file her accident report, and got<br/>
into difficulty there, because there was no marking on the ramp, and<br/>
they refused to believe here when she said where on the ramp she<br/>
&quot;thought&quot; she was at the time.  <br/>
<br/>
Most D.C. border markers aren&#39;t visible from any roads around here.<br/>
