“They are not safe. They are anything but for safety,” said a woman who added vehicles in the two-block section sometimes drive in the middle of Springbrook to avoid the bollards.

Oh, so drivers behind of the wheel of an automobile are the danger. Why remove the bike lanes rather than the car lanes?

I heard that Etobicoke’s NIMBYs are insane, but this is a new level of stupidity from Richmond Hill.

    Some of the driving i see in tighter areas like parking lots makes me question how the hell the driver even got a lisence.

    The practical portion of the test I took to get my license was a joke. You could take your test anywhere at at any time of the day so you could schedule the test for 10am in a sleepy town with very little traffic. They just had me drive around for a few minutes and then passed me. No zipper merging, no parallel parking, no reversing driving at all, no tight places and nothing challenging.

      There should be a mandated standardized course that includes, reversing, parking, emergency braking, swerving, and various other maneuvers.
