Dear Ontario Government, …

Dear Ontario Government,

This legislation is bound to have the opposite effect of what it is aiming to achieve and will go down as another waste of tax payer dollars.

We fund bike lanes so that bikes don't have to sit in traffic with cars/trucks which allows cars to travel more quickly in their dedicated lanes and improves safety for cyclists.

Now you are looking to remove those bike lanes - this wastes our tax dollars and basically means those bikes now travel ON THE ROAD again and will cause traffic to slow down as cars try to pass them.

Do you realize that a bike is legally allowed to travel on the road as a road vehicle?

This is going to backfire in a big way and you are going to end up causing more congestion downtown and making my (and many other drivers) commutes worse.

Please apply some critical thinking to this situation before you end up adding to Toronto's gridlock.

Thank you.
