Yet Another 18-Wheeler Gets Stuck Atop Pacific Heights – It’s Hard Out Here for a Driver – Broadway and Divisadero

See? Now there’s your problem. Screeeech!!!!

They ought to have a sign or something.

Anyway, a kajillion PG&E trucks and the SFPD are on the scene with lots of personnel helping out as California Street turns into a giant taxi parking lot.

I’d have no idea how to get big rig rolling
