I just can't believed how bad it is to drive in San Francisco..... Today I spent hours driving in town to find 2 snowboarding shops (I'm looking for a washer for my binding).

I first missed the on-ramp to I-280 north (according to map) because the sign said Califonia 1, then I turned around and found that there was no on-ramp to the freeway from the opposite direction! So, I ended up driving local streets to the first shop. I drove through streets after streets, turns after turns and go wrong direction a few times before I found it. The same happened when I search for the 2nd shop, I have to turn around a few times to make the right turns to find the road the shop is located.....

It's just not right. I'm not too bad w/ map and driving to places. I surived driving Toronto/Montreal downtown, and paced around Paris/Tokyo (ok, walking is easier than driving). But nothing is like San Francisco. The road is just too mess up to drive around. There is no such thing called "city planning" there. I guess the city is just too old. All the hills and slopes doesn't help at all.
