Also, several of the streets in Hyattsville listed as "local" have double yellow lines which suggest they are collectors or arterials and promote faster speeds. Removing center striping on local streets should be added as a traffic calming tool: Ask R. Moses: Does Center Line Striping Make Streets Safer?
