Bikers should absolutely without a doubt be able to use HOV lanes in Ontario without having to have a passenger. Green vehicles, limos / chauffer service vehicles even when empty are allowed to so why not motorcycles?

As a single motorcycle rider that commutes from Hamilton to Mississauga, allowing me to use the HOV lane will exceptionally increase the safety of my commute. I sometimes fear for my life during rush hour, I’ve had many close calls being cut off or almost rear ended.

Without having a significant impact on HOV lane traffic this would make it safer for motorcyclists and potentially increase the use of motorcycles which would improve traffic on roads and reduce emissions.
As a.person who rides motorcycles, I welcome this amendment to the highway traffic act, allowing single passenger motorcycles to use the HOV lanes. Much safer for us riders. Many lives will be saved.
I am all for this proposal. I've only road a motorcycle for 3 years now. And on a very small bike. A Honda CBR 125. It's the perfect in town bike. With family that lives South and North, taking the 401 is not something I relish the thought of! Specialy on a small bike!

Dear Minister's,
This would be great decision in the favour of all the motorists to avoid any mishaps,delays on the roads.
I will really appreciate in case this decision have been made.
Regards with all the best wishes

To whom it may concern:
Motorcycles should be treated as high occupancy vehicles.
Motorcycles are more fuel efficient than automobiles, even when you divide the consumption across 2 or 3 occupants in a small car, let alone a truck or SUV.

Yes, I think this would be a good idea to allow motorcycles on HOV lanes.
It’s safer for motorcyclist and motorists. Less congestion on main lanes. I am sure less pollution compared to a single occupancy car/pickup truck by promoting motorcycles.
This is wonderful news , I'm glad the province of Ontario is catching up to the common practice almost all Western Nations as well as most of Asia. This practice is not only safer for the rider improve the soil traffic for everybody.
I'm in complete support of this proposal, its a much safer place for motorcyclists to be in traffic, and is respectful of their reduced impact on the environment.
