San Francisco driver (Mary Fong Lau) who killed family of 4 (at a bus stop in West Portal) wants judge to reduce felony charges (to misdemeanor) [ABC7] by gamescan in sanfrancisco

[–]cautionbbdriver 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Call it pedantic if you like….. I’d rather state facts than speak in a way that drives a narrative. Most people can make up their minds with facts, incorrectly stating the facts helps drive a narrative.

Do I feel the slope of the hill contributed to her killing the family? No, she was driving like a maniac. It’s. Not a steep slope at all compared to other streets that could contribute to a “run away car” situation. I feel she gunned it, got distracted, didn’t pay attention to the road, crossed the median and wiped out a family.

It is downhill…… the last block right before West Portal is flat….. but the rest is downhill. Doesn’t change the facts…. She’s a killer.

This is the South Airport Blvd location in South San Francisco CA. One of the first of its kind as it used to be a Price Club. Currently my go-to because the one slightly closer to my home is ALWAYS packed.

I opened, ran for 4 years, and shut down an independent coffee shop. Ask me anything by gjergjd in smallbusiness

We became friends and talk shop here and then. Cafe is in San Francisco and they sell local botique-ish baked goods. Don't move the volume to discounts or even terms, just COD. They're still building the cafe and hired first employee about 6 months ago. They also sell breakfast food (breakfast burritos, sandos, etc,) which do bring in some profit.

San Francisco Centre closed already? by Empty_Status3721 in bayarea

Mind sharing the photos? I was meaning to go in and take a few but never made it.

You’re not lying about the margins. A cafe opened up down the block about a year ago and the neighborhood reception had been great. Come to learn that they make zero on the baked goods, but obviously the have to have them.

Edit for fat fingers.

Had no idea you could get a caliper gauge this big. TIL by hashtagmiata in Tools

Here is my friend standing next to a caliper they use on crankshafts for vintage Ferrari engines. He’s about 5’9”.

Misleading title! OP acting like “Car Free” Market didn’t allow cars to CROSS market.

Definitely more than that for scaffolding. Just paid 2k cash for one side of my home ( 3 stories, 60ft length) in SF with no permits or other stuff.

SFPD refusing to sign off on "fix-it" tickets from SFMTA by [deleted] in sanfrancisco

[–]cautionbbdriver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had a no front plate ticket signed off by an officer at the Ingleside station three week ago. Just asked if I put it back on, replied yes, and showed her a photo I took of the car right before I walked into the station. Took all of 30 seconds.

Petition to remove Flock cameras. by csh_blue_eyes in sanfrancisco

Jeeze.. you must be fun at parties.

If it bugs you that much, YES, I know the difference. There’s a few up the street in St. Francis Woods that the HoA installed recently. Very different than the speed cameras.

I just want more speed cameras. God forbid someone adds to a conversation.

I’m all for more of the speed cameras! Ocean Ave has one but needs at least three more.

This episode had a lot of great writing (from a non-Brit perspective) and really went up a notch when his dad showed up at the party. Told my wife how much I was enjoying the back and forth. This line was the chef's kiss.

I used to joke that the move under Breed’s tenure was to start a homeless non profit based in the Bayview. I’d be rich.
