Dear Dr. Gridlock:

Cars are my number one concern when I'm bicycling in the District, but I also get very nervous in the presence of pedestrians who blithely jaywalk and don't ever see me coming.

It seems to me that they are watching or listening only for cars when jaywalking and pay no attention whatsoever to bicycles. The worst area for such near-encounters is Pennsylvania Avenue NW, between 17th and 19th streets.
