The culture of motorists in Toronto shows a blatant disregard for traffic laws and the safety of others. It is very apparent when you look at the countless fatalities caused by their careless and aggressive style of driving. This is caused by Toronto Police Service's lack of enforcement, complicity/encouragement of road rage towards cyclists, and poorly planned infrastructure projects that favor motorists. Your proposal is a continuation of backwards logic, and will cause more congestion. Any good city deters driving and encourages transit / alternate methods of travel. Do you want Toronto to end up with traffic like Los Angeles? That is where we are headed with your proposal that caters to motorists. Many people I speak with would like to use their bicycle, but don't feel safe to do so. Building bike lanes is ONE STEP towards reducing congestion and gridlock. I am so happy to be a citizen soon and vote against you and your short sighted policies. God bless your heart, because we all know it is in bad shape. Exercise helps ;)
