Thank you Marin, for not using the ferry and making us pay the difference. >:(

I felt the same way so I got myself a plate flipper.

When my plate folds down, it just has what looks like the plate of some other idiot who can get my fine for blowing through the tolls.


Mine says "Desmo Q"  :P

BTW - If you wheelie through the toll plaza they can't read your plate anyway [evil]

I thought this was disproven already by some one on the board?

My plate never got picked up on the 748.

Never could wheelie the 620 fast enough to get away with it (well, at all  :P).  Got tagged once in MA and once on the GB.
Getting that envelope sucks, but it is fun seeing your picture.   [moto]

Those ferrys are Packed during commute hours.

Thank you GG bridge district for wanting to spend millions on a barrier, that will only encourage more people do dive under a BART train and hold up the commute, instead of installing a low cost diving board.  >:(

True-ish. In recent years the ferry usage has increased, but not nearly enough to offset the previous years of minimal/non use.

Whatever the multitude of reasons for the increase, it still sucks! >:(
