on tap with overnight lows in the 40's with a few locations that could get down into the 30's. mild is the only way to describe the next seven days. beyond wednesday, it looks like we might have a little disturbance in northern california that could give the north bay a chance at a drop for two of rain. >>george: we are continuing to keep our eyes out for any hot spots. it is still a pretty quiet and calm commute. an easy ride from the macarthur maze towards the upper deck. your ride on the san mateo bridge looks good. third 101 for the golden gate is an easy ride

minibuses running this stop. this tour bus driver as well. it was so bad that the san francisco fire department had to fill in as crossing guards so that people could cross the street safely. what is written in the california driving test? i am starting to think that the dmv is just giving away licenses. for the record, some drivers did stop but for the most part it was a free-for-all until the lights came back on. >>mark: if you have a comment or story idea, e- mail us on www.kron4.com. >>darya: a redwood city high school student has been charged with four felonies after police say he attempted to rape his former teacher. david velazquez pulled a knife at the woman at the summit preparatory high school garage on monday
