You also plagiarize quotes too!this is one angry cyclist my friends
"like an old man trying to send back soup at the deli"
Ford passed the legislation for ripping up the bike lanes TODAY!!
- Thread starter mandrill
- Start date
Seriously, I ride the College Street bike lanes and there there is no way they can fit three abreast.
The City of Toronto does not collect gas tax, they pay for roads from property taxes.
Bike lanes were built because there are so many horrible licensed drivers they are needed. I for one have a license (had one for 40+ years) and know the rules of the road. I mutter under my breath every time I see a driver roll through a stop sign, or take a red as a yield sign. Cyclists aren't the only ones, motorists are just as guilty.
4 months of decent weather, that's not true. April to November is more than 4 months and in Toronto you can ride in December, sometimes even into January. And in March on the back end of our now pathetic winters too.
I find it funny when people try to claim you can only bike for 4 months a year.
Its idiotic.
Usually there are only 2-4 weeks of weather where there is too much snow to bike.
"Sidewalks, what's the deal with them? Sidewalks are a disaster! They're for commie pinko latte sipping, car hating downtown elites! They are in the way of adding a lane in either direction of every roadway from here to Timbuktu! Car drivers are always phoning me and saying, "Doug, do something about those fuckin sidewalks! They're only used by commie pinko downtown elitists." Every where I go, everyone comes up to me and says, 'get rid of sidewalks, sidewalks, sidewalks!', Folks, folks, folks, this sidewalk insanity has got to stop! Therefore, I will be enacting legislation outlawing sidewalks in commie pinko wards throughout the city"

Not a word, not a single fuckin word that Ford and his kneejerk reactionary supporters say about bike lanes is based in logic, reason, fact and evidence. It's all culture war nonsense that will not do a fuckin thing to improve congestion. Instead of dealing with real problems, the sheer number of vehicles on the limited number of road space, Ford employs culture war tactics on trivial issues and billions of dollars' worth of bribes to con rubes, hicks, hayseeds and yokels for the upcoming election.

And yet we don't see many people biking the other 48-50 weeks of the year.

Removing the bike lanes won't improve congestion but installing them did make it worse.
And when 4 bicycle cops occupy the same whole lane and a motorist runs them over, you would be tempted to acquit the motorist too?
Millions upon millions of bicycle trips per year is, "we don't see many people biking".
No it's common sense. Unlike the Chow nonsense that bike lanes improve traffic flow and are a benefit to local businesses.
