Compared to driving in the developing world though, SF traffic is very structured and very tame.

My favorite data point here is Cairo: the sound of traffic there is horns blaring and metal-on-metal. Driving in Cario is a contact sport. And it doesn't seem to matter how nice a car is: a fancy Mercedes will have as many body dents as a rust bucket Lada.
