this is what i have been saying the entire time..... they need to obey the same traffic laws as cars if they want a peice of the road...

i fucking hate it when on a red light a cyclist would weave through traffic to the very front of the right lane far out enough to block the person trying to turn right.

driving a car too slow can be a hazzard... so riding a bicycle slowing down traffic to a crawl on the right lane isnt?

if the fucking city wants to eliminate cars from downtown they need to propose a better alternative to driving... i'm not riding a bicycle wearing my suit.
how about instead of spending millions of dollars putting in that bikelane they build a nice mega parking lot outside of downtown near a skytrain station for people to park their cars at a decent price/good security). Instead of that mega parking lot being near a skytrain station they can have dedicated busses run from that parking lot to parts of the downtown core
