This next report from Leaside area
Pretty soon 30KM per hour is going to be normal throughout the entire city

Its funny how they blame apps like Waze for directing people to drive through their neighbourhoods though
I can't wait when the liberal goddess Greta Thunberg show up in Toronto, to complain about emission problems what the decision could cause.

I live on a street where there are speed bumps. I think it helps slow down cars.

We use to have kids play street hockey but they were all killed by speeding cars. Just kidding!

It's not just speed but all this construction is forcing people to walk/cycle too close to live traffic, especially too close to these huge dump/cement mixer trucks.

Ground zero of NIMBYism. Many residents in areas like this one believe that 'others' shouldn't be allowed to even pass through their community.

p.s. Maybe the 2 years of construction on Eglinton have had something to do with people using side streets.

Ultimate end goal is to just cause perpetual gridlock. That way no one ever gets run over. Success!

Almost all streets in downtown are now with 30 and 40 km speed limits, whether they need it or not and regardless of the time of day or traffic conditions.

It is all part of the anti car crusade.

But John Tory and the whole council crew will be all smiles once they start collecting on photo radar in every ward.

This is just another cash grab being phased in. The City and all levels of government are broke and desperate to do anything 'in the name of good' to collect fines and fees from the demonized.


What we really need is funding of education for drivers, bikers, pedestrians and transit riders and a transformation of attitudes to all of us getting along together.

It is useless. I can maybe understand a certain radius around a school (zone)n but that is it. Ultimately roads are built for cars, sidewalks for people. It is just common sense, When U cross or enter the street, a vehicle moving at whatever speed ultimately has the right away.

I don't hear them complaining about the increase in their property values due to being so close to new mass rapid transit.

I love side streets. I take them all the time. But even out here in Durham there are some streets where you just know they think you should not be driving through at all unless you live on the street.

Do these "outsiders" also park their vehicles on your street taking up space from residents who actually paid for their parking permit?

Banning cars eventually is only fair when we have banned guns already.
Although we haven't banned guns, and no one's even suggesting banning cars, it certainly makes sense to max the regulations that control the most dangerous and deadly devices we use.

I despise the low class who seems to love letting kids play on streets
Even worse the self entitlement with the hockey nets / basketball nets taking up parking space

I'm the outsider. LOL.

But I would not be a parking asshole. We have enough of them around here.

I remember posting a note on one guys truck. They live in a corner lot house with a double car garage and drive way. They don't park in their garage because of course that is to store junk.

For some reason, not to redo the driveway, he decided to park on the road while his drive way empty. Ok, whatever right? Except the truck was so close to the corner of the 4 way stop that he may as well been right in the intersection itself.

I don't get why you park on the road when you have 4 parking spots available to you. So I wrote a note. I have never seen him park like that again. LOL.

We used to have a neighbor who had a huge 4 car driveway. He wouldn’t park any of his 3 cars there because it was under a tree and he didn’t want leaves falling on his cars. There was a very limited number of parking spots on our street, and he monopolized at least 2 of them at any given time. Because he didn’t want leaves falling on his cars.

Fortunately, he’s dead now.

This same guy with the truck likes to have golf course style grass too. So he waters his lawn every morning. Well the wife does I should say.

Anyway, they have the sprinkler spray on both sides of "their" corner. They want to reach the grass on the other side of the sidewalk. So of course that water ends up covering the entire sidewalk on the corner in both directions. Which of course makes people have to walk on the road to avoid getting sprayed.

I caught the wife out one morning having coffee during a walk with my dogs. So I politely brought it up. Her response " well we need to water our lawn and that includes on the other side of the sidewalk. But I will take your suggestion under advisement."

Which of course was a polite fuck off to me. So when I see the sprinkler going, I took it and move it and made sure the spray hits their front door. I only did it once so far because now it is fall, but I can't wait until next year when I put it right on their door step itself. LOL

Don't you just love pretentious and entitled people?
