You could hear this Toyota idling from a good distance away on Earth Day 2012.
I suppose you could have reached in and used the keys to turn the thing off, but then, who knows, that’s when our Hollywood-obsessed SFPD might have swept in from their hiding positions.

Hours later, this rig was still there, chugging away.
I don’t think that this was an SFPD operation, but you never know. You’re best off giving a wide berth and getting on to the friction of the day…
Chugga, chugga, chugga…

I don’t know. Maybe we were getting punk’d by someone…
