Re: [haflingerfriends] Driving in San Francisco in 1906

Wow...you literally took your life into your own hands just trying to cross the street. How wonderful to see all the different kinds of traffic sharing the road, though!
Thanks!

Subject: [haflingerfriends] Driving in San Francisco in 1906


Someone sent me the link below to a film made of a San Francisco cable
car going along Market Street just before the 1906 earthquake. Of
interest to me is the mix of pedestrians, bicyclists, cable cars,
trams, horse-drawn vehicles, ridden horses and the very elastic rules
of the road. I thought this might be of interest to driving
enthusiasts.
