A colleague and I had appointments in the city.
At 11am all of them were canceled and people left work early to escape
By noon traffic on The Bay Bridge was snarled.
I would not been comfortable on the Bridge, as rioters last year took it over assaulting people and vandalizing vehicles
People were trapped
I left work early as I was nearly caught in 3 riots last year and wanted to make my escape without effect
You are still allowed to leave / move from California.
