I have a strong disagreement with the title of this bill and its contents. I live in Toronto and commute to work 5 days a week on a bicycle. I also use my bike to get around the city for errands, visiting friends and family. Removing bike lanes in the city on Bloor, University, Yonge or other streets in the city will reduce my mobility in the city, reduce my safety, and add time to my commuting - the opposite of this bills intention. The tile of this bill assumes the “You” drives a vehicle, which so many people do not do. Prioritizing the car in the city caters to a certain band of the population, at the expense of others. I believe we need more infrastructure for cyclists, and adding a level of involvement with the provincial government will slow this down.
