A steep so slope, it keep you woke!
Seriously, don’t drive down this thing in your semi-truck tired, don’t even think about going down that waterpark slide unless you’re well rested when you get there.Imagine this spot being your best alternative as a civil engineer, that’s one helluva mountain range. What’s this, like a pass between the Karakoram or something? Somewhere in the Andes?
Initial D!!!
MULTI-TRACK DRIFTING!?
Deja Vu, I’ve seen this comment before.
(Higher in the thread)🎵
And I know it’s my time to go
(Hold my tea)
GAS! GAS! GAS!
I’m gonna step on the gas
That was not the song that came to mind for me.
oh I know haha
China also has an amazing switchback highway called the Pamir sky road with over 600 hairpin turns in under 36km
🤢 That sounds amazingly nauseating.
Poor humans
How that proposal looks in winterOoh, now I want to see sb drive up that
it looks at Lombard St. in SF
“Pathetic”
That parking space for the white car in the first photo looks like it sucks.
Surprised it’s still the whole car and not just the front.
I wonder if that is actually an allowed space.
Agreed.
I’m feeling anxiety just imagining backing out of that.
That car parked in that not really a parking spot is just asking to have their bumper ripped off.
Do you guys think it would be a good idea if more US residential streets were made into this?
even better would be making it a sheer cliff with an elevator and a staircase.
I thought it’s only exist in GTA San Andreas, but it’s real now
Might’ve even been real a few decades before San Andreas 😉
That’s a fun discovery!
And Midtown Madness 2
That’s beautiful!
Yes! Pretty well trafficked all day every day.
I guess SF lied when they said Lombard was the crookedest street in the world. The one from the meme is clearly more crooked. Also, when was that picture taken? There’s usually a huge line of tourist cars driving down that street. I’ve never seen it with only 2 cars.
Going by the memory of my 1980 edition of the Guinness book of world records, it was the number of hairpin turns that made it the crookedest street. There could also be a difference between a street and a road.
I thought they blocked it to only local traffic after residents complained?
Oh, maybe? I haven’t been back to SF in over a decade. I’m kind of afraid to go back, because I love that city, and the things I read about it on the internet these days make it seem like it has deteriorated dramatically since I was there last.
Honestly that is probably less dangerous than the regular streets of SF. Never felt more like I was about to die in a cab than I did riding in SF. Dude seemed to know what he was doing but it felt like a roller coaster.
Now imagine the actual Steve McQueen driving at top Mustang speed up and down those streets in Bullitt. Absolute legend.
I want to coast down that in neutral so bad.
Coast down it in first so you don’t fade your brakes to uselessness (even automatics have a first-second for engine braking downhill like this).
Not mine. I think it has automatic engine braking or something since I don’t drift downhill as soon as I let off the brake though.
Yea our Hyundai does this too but you need to tap on the brakes and then you will see the revs raise and hold. It only does it when on a downhill incline.
Yeeeeeehaw!
For 15 dollars you can park your car in a mountain elevator which will go up in a straight line on the side of the mountain. LOL.
Not pictured is the incline that the switchbacks are set at. They put the exact minimum required, so most vehicles are struggling just with the switchbacks.
why not make two roads? one only goes straight down. The other can be switchbacks to go up. let’s waste 2x the asphalt!
Ooh, and an intersection every time they cross.
Roundabout.
Just build a slide for cars.
With a ramp at the end like the skiing long jump in the Olympics.

Big asphalt at it again.
Gotta unlock it with a stunt
Swiss would drill a tunnel.
So they’d make it a holey site?
I’m sensing a pattern with the swiss. 👀

They are themselves a hole in the EU
a hole’s indeed
Darn, i had the same idea 😂
