I highly disagree with this…

I highly disagree with this proposal and I hope it does not get implemented. What Toronto needs is more bike-friendly infrastructure, not less. Different alternatives to driving should be viable for those who do not want to use a car or can't use a car. Driving cars is not only more dangerous to people's lives, but it is a major financial burden to bear, especially to those who are already struggling to afford living costs in this city.

If you want less traffic congestion to "get drivers where they need to go faster," making it more feasible for people to bike will get more cars off the road and reduce car traffic. Improving bike-friendly infrastructure and adding more bike lanes will encourage more people to bike instead of drive, and bikes take up far less space on the road than cars do. As long as there are adequate bike lanes, then cyclists will not be in the way of people who drive cars.

In the advent of our current climate crisis, it is very important that we take measures to mitigate it by encouraging people to take alternative and environmentally friendly modes of transportation, such as biking.
