"Gaaah!!!"

This freeway and section of 101 is probably one of the worst, traffic-wise, in San Francisco - and that's saying something! The area around Duboce avenue where cars congregate underneath the freeway can be chaos during rush hour, non-rush hour - and even on weekends!

I have spent 20 minutes sitting under here before, waiting to move along, and gone all of 20 feet. The area underneath the freeway is dark and depressing, albeit well-protected from the frequent winter rain. The one true perk of this area is that the massive congestion is caused by the fact that it is in the center of many great areas in San Francisco
Pros
  • Friendly Drivers
  • Lots of great areas nearby
Cons
  • Crowded
  • Noisy
  • Traffic is blocked
