For 14 years used to drive to work 4.5 km from home and hated it because it was only 4.5 km away. This is Don Mills, Ontario. The drive was 15 minutes

Then I found a way to get out of my car to ride my bike to work. The ride was 20 minutes. Neither traffic congestion nor weather affected my ride.

When I got back into my car, three years later, that 15 minute drive had turned into 29 minutes. No bike lanes existed.

There are lots of other drivers just like me would would like to get out of their cars. And because of bike lanes, they did. But removing bike lanes will simply return thfm back into drivers turning safe streets into the DVP, Gardiner and the 401.
