Don't hold your breath waiting for drivers to follow the rules of the road. It won't happen. Solve the street safety crisis by banning cars from certain streets, or having truly physically separate bike lanes.
@VisionZeroCA @BikingToronto Meanwhile for cyclists, we have existing rules of the road which are a lot more favorable than @ONtransport's website tells us. What is needed is for all motorists to respect them https://t.co/MeLbR9XNt5

Fact. If I see proper safe separated bike lanes on TV or in a film, I *know* it isn't Toronto, because we're so behind other cities.
Funny; when creating our Complete Streets Guidelines some folks in the film office argued bike lanes on our streets make it less generic + therefore undesirable for film shoots. I argued they make our city *more like* other global cities and therefore an even better stand in!

Lights! Buy yourself lights! Big ones, bright ones, flashing ones. Those little dinky 1-LED ones aren't enough.

You know, I really *LOVE* being lied to @bikeshareto. You just announced plans for e-bikes. Jesus. https://t.co/27EfRaBLi1

E-bikes may soon be coming to Bike Share Toronto stations around the city, as part of a major expansion planned for 2020.
@BikingToronto Hi there 👋 Thanks for reaching out! At this time, we do not have a plan to add e-bikes to the fleet. Happy cycling!
