@sanfranciscolives: Parking on a hill in San Francisco comes with more than just turning your wheels and setting the brake. Because of the city’s steep streets, gravity pulls heavily on your car door the moment you open it. On uphill slopes, the door wants to swing shut on you, and on downhill slopes, it can fly open if you’re not careful. It turns a simple task like getting out of your car into something you actually have to think about, especially when you’re juggling bags or trying not to hit the car next to you. That’s why many locals end up using their foot to prop the door open while stepping out. It might look odd at first, but it’s a practical workaround for a very real everyday challenge in San Francisco. Over time, it becomes second nature, just another small adjustment you make when living in a city known for its iconic (and very steep) hills. #sanfrancisco #californiaadventure #bayarea #thingstodoinsf #sanfranciscohills
