I do *not* support this Bill.
I *do* support reducing the space allocated to moving vehicles in favour of retaining and increasing safe cycling lanes.
1. Roads are not uniquely meant for motorized vehicles - a hard concept for drivers, apparently.
2. Persons in steel boxes are safer in collisions than persons without that protection.
3. A painted line on pavement is not protection.
4. Parked cars take up more space than bike lanes and serve less purpose on the thoroughfare - remove THEM, not bike lanes.
5. Saving 2-3 minutes of a driver's commute is not worth ONE life.
Finally, my tax dollars should be spent on healthcare, on education, and on care of our environment - NOT obstructing cities' decisions for their roads!
