The city and those who run it have lost touch with reality. I remember listening to AM 640, where the head of the biker association stated that bikers don’t stop at stop signs because they lose momentum. This perfectly encapsulates the insanity of bike lanes in Toronto.
Bike lanes are taking up driving space, condos are popping up everywhere, and there’s less and less road available for driving. Just to be clear, no one takes their family out on a bike, no one goes to a supermarket to shop for a family on a bike, and no one does anything significant or economically impactful with a bike.
One lane to drive on Bloor Street and Yonge Street—have you all lost your minds? Who is making these decisions? It’s pure madness.
The weather is not suitable for biking, and the distances required for commuting aren’t feasible for most bikers. If you care about bikers, put them on the sidewalk and give the roads back to drivers. Bikers don’t follow any rules, and they openly boast about it. It’s time for some common sense to prevail.
