San Francisco’s Lombard Street, along with the Painted Ladies and the Golden Gate Bridge, is one of the city’s most recognizable landmarks, and as such, 2.1 millions tourists each year check out the “Crookedest Street in the World.”
In the summer, it is estimated that about 6,000 people drive down the street per day, and the locals aren’t amused by the traffic that often backs up three blocks, and the shenanigans the visitors get up to, such as climbing on their roofs for a better photo or using their carports as public bathrooms.
