The protest started around 7:45 a.m. and no cars were able to get into San Francisco for hours. Westbound lanes of the bridge could be seen empty as traffic backed up and all lanes didn't reopen until just before noon.
Images show cars blocking the lanes on the eastern span of the bridge as the protesters call for a cease-fire in the Middle East.

That bridge connecting Oakland to San Francisco is a major fucking hassle anyway, even on a normal day.
Approaching from the east during the morning commute, once the bridge comes into sight and we're talking maybe a mile, mile and a half away, you've got another hour before you even get on the bridge.
