Quick Glance: San Francisco's Real Estate Market in Turmoil
- The city of San Francisco, once seen as the shining star of the West Coast, is now on the verge of collapse, with seemingly no one raising the alarm.
- In particular, the city's housing market has been severely impacted over the past year, with prices plummeting and homeowners fleeing en masse.
- Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase, did not hold back in his comparison of San Francisco's issues to those of New York City, stating that the Bay Area is 'in far worse shape.'
- San Francisco is failing in all aspects, leading to a quiet collapse of its housing market, where once luxurious properties are now being offered at significant discounts.

Quick Glance: Waymo Robotaxi Incident with Unicyclists in San Francisco
- A self-driving Waymo taxi in San Francisco was filmed passing unicyclists and scooters, driving down the wrong side of the street.
- The incident occurred at the intersection of Mission and First in the South of Market district around 9:30 PM PT on Friday, where a crowd of electric-powered unicyclists and other riders were flowing down the street.
- The footage shows the cycling crowd crossing an intersection, with the Waymo taxi following closely behind, initially staying in the right lane but then shifting into the left lane to pass the group.
- After a tense moment, a brave unicyclist forced the car to stop by pulling out in front of it, allowing the Waymo to return to the correct lane. The incident caused controversy and raised concerns about Waymo's safety protocols.

Quick Glance: Anaheim Police Introduce New Tesla Patrol Vehicles
- Anaheim police will soon start using electric Tesla Model Ys as patrol vehicles in a pilot program to keep more officers on the road.
- The Police Department has 83 patrol vehicles that are aging and breaking down more often. The need is critical as the patrol fleet is depleted, leading to insufficient vehicles for proper officer deployment.
- The six purchased Model Ys will be put in service after 16 officers are trained to use them. The electric vehicles will be charged at police stations with level-two chargers and refueled with Tesla Superchargers during 24-hour shifts.
- The Teslas are expected to be cheaper to operate but have a higher initial cost. The department plans to evaluate the performance of electric vehicles during the pilot program to determine potential future purchases.
