Friday Morning Constitutional Cable Car Smashes Into Car Door That Swung Open
A driver in San Francisco faced a dangerous situation when a passenger opened the backseat door into oncoming traffic, causing a cable car to nearly tear the door off. The incident took place at the intersection of California and Jones streets, highlighting safety concerns for rideshare drivers. Concurrently, moderate Democrats in the California Assembly collaborated with Republicans to advance a bill that would impose stricter penalties on those soliciting sex from minors aged 16 and 17. The bill, now awaiting Senate review, reflects a growing concern over the exploitation of young individuals. Additionally, the San Francisco Rec and Parks Department announced changes to grass volleyball net policies in Golden Gate Park due to excessive damage caused by volleyball players.
This decision has led to pushback from the volleyball community, indicating a conflict between recreational use and park preservation. Hundreds also protested outside ICE headquarters in South San Jose against Trump's immigration policies, further illustrating the city's active civic engagement. Lastly, the stock market saw NVIDIA's share price rebound following positive developments in the AI chip market.
