That's crazy logic!! It is far simpler from a driving perspective, for a vehicle to "roll" or freewheel downward rather than be reverse driven "upward". If you freewheel it downward, there's no need to drive it, you simply need to steer it. Whereas reversing upwards, you physically need to "drive" it.its far far easier for the person driving upwards to just "roll" downwards.

I wouldn't want to live in a house where you open your front door and step out into the street. Avalanches and mud slides would also be a major concern as well as the dry seasons with wildfires which California has their fair share of. In case of an emergency, you only have one way out of those hills and that's the same way you came in.

Too many hillsides have no retaining walls or ground cover. They’re eroding into the street even in good weather, imagine if it rains for a few days in a row, or the inevitable earthquake. City needs regulations requiring property owners to secure their own ground, so public tax $$ doesn’t have to clean up the landslide-blocked streets.
