Good morning. I am making…

Good morning.

I am making this comment as a driver that commutes to downtown Toronto at least 3 times a week to my office for work. I do not use public transportation or cycle on roadways.

Like many in my position, I have a love/hate relationship with cyclists (including E-scooters) on the road mostly due to what I feel is reckless behaviour on their part in relation to safety on our roads in the city.

I am saying this to say that I am not in favour of removing bike lanes off our roads. Since these bike lanes have been installed my encounters with cyclists with careless conduct on the streets have decreased exponentially. My worry that I will seriously injure one of the unsafe riders has significantly decreased as well.

Also, I feel that removing these bike lanes is frankly a waste of money.

I am asking that you please reconsider your stance on removing bike lanes from these downtown areas of Toronto.

Thank you for your consideration.
