The SFMTA, which recently enshrined free double parking on Sundays despite countless organizations and neighborhoods saying they didn't want it, removed the plastic posts at an unprecedented speed. They responded to this incredibly dangerous activity by saying they are "required" to remove the little posts from the streets. They went on to say, "We also need to make sure that there's plenty of room for the double parking that occurs on Valencia Street on a daily basis. If we don't stop this kind of behavior, what's next, they'll block illegal Sunday median parking on Valencia & Dolores, too?"

The SFMTA is hopeful that they've removed the small posts so they'll be filled with incredibly safe daily double and median parking. A SFMTA representative said, "As a direct arm of our wimpy leaders, we want to ensure voting motorists aren't denied the promise given to them in car commercials."
