I use bike transportation…

I use bike transportation every day and have been hit by cars several times. Bikes need to be protected, we frequently see news reports of bikers killed by automobiles, this bill would only cause more injuries and deaths. Even if you don't care about the human cost of bike infrastructure, and only care about getting people moving as fast as possible bike infrastructure makes more sense, it has higher capacity than roads and is much more accessible to those of limited economic means. On that note, when car prices and gas costs are soaring, when Ontarians are struggling to make ends meet, why are we 1) using tax payer dollars to tear out brand new infrastructure to 2) make the cheapest mode of transport less viable. The province needs to stay out of municipal affairs and let local democracy make the decisions local communities need.
