~35 people died due to cars in 2022. Guns are WAY worse.

313 people were killed on local roads in the DC region in 2022. And 0 people were killed in the incident referred to in the post.
The fact this your comment is upvoted 7 times (probably because no one recognizes that it's off by an order of magnitude) in response to my -34 comment is proof that people, and probably r/washingtondc redditors in particular, have an extremely inaccurate understanding of the relative risks of driving vs. the metro.

Isn’t DC. Your link even proves me right. Check the chart.
