Supporters of Prop. K have promoted the measure by saying it will allow for the creation of a new park. 

“In a city with many dangerous streets, Ocean Beach Park will be a place for people of all ages, especially seniors and children, to walk without fear,” said Brian Quan, a Richmond District resident who serves on the executive committee of the Sierra Club.

In response to complaints from drivers who rely on the road to get to work, Quan said closing the Great Highway to cars would allow the city to adjust the westside traffic design for future generations rather than just focus on current needs.

State Senator Scott Wiener is speaking out after the California DMV is making a lot of people cringe.

In recent months, San Franciscans have been getting drivers licenses, listing the city as “San Fran.”

Wiener, who called it “a grave injustice,” posted a photo on his social media page and it showed the misprint.

Wiener added that he’s now sending the DMV a “cease and desist” letter. He demands the agency immediately stop doing it.

He also called it slander, saying “no self-respecting San Franciscan would ever use that phrase.”

NBC Bay Area reached out to the California DMV. They said its aware of the issue and that they’ve already made a fix.
