This is a terrible idea! First of all will it lead to the death of cyclists who are no longer protected on roads. But since the only constituents that you seem concerned about are drivers let's consider the impacts on them. For example, I currently take my daughter to daycare on a bike but if that no longer feels safe I will be forced to drive a car. This means I will be adding to the gridlock on the vast majority of streets and highways that do not have bike lanes. How will this benefit drivers? One of the points in this bill is about making data used to inform bike lane decisions public. That seems like a good idea, in the spirit of that where is your data that will explain how pushing cyclists out of safe bike lanes will affect traffic? Where will those commuters go? Many like myself will likely start driving more and contributing to gridlock. Others who don't have the luxury of owning a car will end up on our already overwhelmed and under services transit systems. The remained who continue to cycle will be less safe and more likely to end up in our overwhelmed and under resourced hospitals. Tax payers will lose, cyclists will lose, drivers will lose and the only one who benefits will be Doug Ford who manages to convince a few voters that he is on their side. Shame on you
