The only way to reduce traffic is to reduce the number of cars on the road. The best way to do this is to get single-occupancy drivers to use other forms of transportation. For the vast majority of these people, cycling is their best option. The biggest reason people in cities say they don’t want to (not can’t) cycle is because they don’t feel safe doing so. We should make cycling safer for everyone by expanding the use of protected cycle lanes, not limiting them.
I live in Toronto and use my bike for most trips between 3-20km, then use my motorcycle or car for anything further than that. This is the best way to get around the city. This bill will make me use my car more, thus making traffic worse for everyone.
