As someone who predominantly uses a bicycle and public transportation, I support this bill, as it means instead of using a cramped bicycle lane, I will be forced to cycle in the vehicle lane, giving me much more room to manoeuvre in the wider lane.
Although this means that the vehicles behind me will be limited by my top speed of around 25km/h, and though cyclists like me - who are already vulnerable due to woefully inadequate urban design and driver consequences - will be at much greater risk of harm due to unsafe and impatient drivers, I believe this is a small price to pay to reduce gridlock and save time.
