A bill introduced in the California legislature would allow the city to charge drivers to take a trip down Lombard Street, a famous windy red brick-paved block billed as “The Crookedest Street in the World.”

The steep, single-lane street is built on a 27 percent grade and features eight hairpin turns along its length. The bill’s sponsor, State Assemblyman Phil Ting, said traffic in the area is a problem and that he believes that both residents and visitors will benefit.
