I'm a person that bikes and drives in Toronto.

When driving, I never think it's the bikes that cause traffic. If that was true, Lake Shore would never have traffic. The Gardiner would never have traffic. The DVP would never have traffic. The list goes on.

The reason for traffic is too many cars. By removing bike lanes, you are removing a viable alternative to driving. You are removing my ability to bike and will add another car to the road.

Why are bikes the first target when cars can park on major roads. I would think that if you're goal is to get traffic moving, you would first remove the cars that aren't moving from streets - the parked cars.

If this bill passes, the $200 given to me from the Government of Ontario will be donated to the NDP. The $150 tax credit will also be donated to the NDP and so forth.

The only solution to traffic is viable alternatives to driving.
