This bill will cause more…

This bill will cause more traffic than reduce it. Most that used a bike will now take a car (spoiler alert this means more traffic). Anyone who does risk their safety to bike will end up using the lane and block traffic anyways. Not to mention more cyclist injuries and death. You’re taking money out of the pockets of Ontarians by forcing them to buy a car, take an Uber, or transit where they otherwise could have ridden. Bike lanes increase spending in local neighborhoods. Bike lanes will also cost money to be removed. There is literally no metric by which this bill will help. Not reducing traffic, not saving lives, and not saving money. Any step forward with this bill will mean a step backwards for Ontario.
