This is spot on!

Bike couriers are the worst. Anyone who lives or works downtown will know what I'm talking aboot

I don't mind them. At least they know what risks they are taking. It's the naive hipster types that worry me.

Sounds about right!

A driver named Elias Abrahim told CBC News that Ibrahim is originally from Ethiopia. He has a wife and two children and lives in the west end of the city.

Abrahim said his friend’s long service as a cab driver is a testament to his careful nature on the road.

“I told you he’s been driving over 15 years, this shows you how much [of a] careful driver he is,” he said.

"This is the worst thing which can happen to any driver, not only taxi driver, any driver," he added.

Yeah right. More like this is the worst thing that could have happened to Ralph Bissonnette!

My point's proven right here. This is the sort of road menace that complains about bicycles.

Your point was a driver eating with two hands, not one. Who says I would eat a sloppy burger in my car. My point that you MAKE THINGS UP!

Proof?

Kidding, right? From him?

A friend of mine whose a cyclist was almost killed by a truck who crossed over into the bike lane.

Delivery trucks and taxis cross over into bike lanes all the time. Most dangerous vehicles on the road.
