I oppose this proposal.

The province is meddling in municipal affairs, and these proposals set safety standards back, do not acknowledge alternate means of transportation, and are so short-sighted.
My experience has been that after a period of adjustment, the automobile traffic works and flows just fine.
I am a car driver and do not own a bicycle. We must share the roads.
If monies are put into transit (like maybe the Eglinton Crosstown could get working), and bike lanes, then some people will use those means, and there'll be fewer drivers, hence less congestion.
I witnessed the aftermath of a car/bike collision today: if there had been a bike lane, perhaps that accident wouldn't have occurred: who knows? But we must share our roads, SAFELY.
We have to acknowledge the climate change crisis, and get people out of their gas-powered cars, and into alternate modes.
