I saw this scene about once a week at the intersection of California and Jones when I kept a car at the Masonic Temple. Occasionally limos, but usually TOUR BUSES.

I've been by that corner many times. SF streets are tricky, clutch burners for sure.

No, it would add too much weight.

Nah, applying the heel-toe technique to hill launches can minimize that. Got 155,000 miles out of the original clutch in a car I bought with 84,000 miles while living in Tenderknob/Upper Loin Heights. That said, I smelled me a lot of clutch linings in those days

And watching women (people?) walk down those hills in high heels was always fascinating, too...
