Drivers crossing greater downtown San Francisco and the southern border with San Mateo County could be hit with a new toll costing them as much as $1,560 a year.

Soo retarded. As if that area isn't already crowded enough as it is... I can see lines of cars getting backed up for miles trying to get in and out of the City. Glad I take BART when I have to go to the City.

The earliest the new tolls would go into effect would be 2015, and then only for a six-month to one-year experiment to gauge public reaction and the effectiveness.

Yeah, I foresee decreased traffic in that 3 hour gap, but increased before and after. The economy sucks as it is, way to kick people while they're down SF.

no, looks like theyre just going to put toll booths on the 101 and 280 going into SF. You know, because a line of cars stopping to pay tolls always helps ease congestion. (???)
