SFist just published a barn-burner of a post about an effort to slap a stop sign on the above intersection so as to curb drivers tearing ass down the hill. Read up.

Given how many stop signs are on Dolores, it is completely crazy that there isn’t one here. If you’re heading north (coming down the hill), it is actually hard to see pedestrians crossing from the left due to the tree cover.
Especially at 60 MPH.
The comments on this have been largely along the lines of “how about waiting till the street is clear before crossing.” They have a point. But it seems like a stop sign there would be a no brainer. Not that cyclists will pay any attention to it.
Does Brock really need to turn into such an ass in such a short time window? Is this the nature of fame? Or is this just the latent Brock let loose?
Brock is my hero.
FAME. Om nom nom.
i thought sfist was actually restrained. we’re talking about crossing a fucking street!
this intersection is not currently a deathtrap like 19th ave where people get hit all the time. NO.
This is being suggested because people might one day, maybe, if things all go wrong, get hit.
I’m all for cars, IN THEIR PROPER PLACE, but I think that what most San Francisco intersections need are sensors and POP-UP PARKING LOT SPIKES. Cars are great, but drivers suck. Especially SF drivers (not that the bikers or pedestrians are any better…)
Try to roll through that intersection and you will DAMN WELL come to a stop, motherfucker.
