i'm sorry dude, but if i don't know with 100% certainty that the cyclist will stop, i am selfishly not taking the risk of driving. i just don't want to accidentally kill the person

i live downtown and ride, you describe the scene perfectly.

cyclist do pay taxes

This literally didn’t make it clear wtf to do 😂

More roads for cars!!! Fuck bikes

Kill me

Don't stop

No one does this

Better than the flashing yellow arrows in europe...

That didn’t explain anything.

Since the beginning of civilization people have tried to move faster, and the slow stepped aside. Now since communists are gaining power, that's been turned upside down, and its called "progressive". More like "regressive" imho.

Insane that provinces can have different rules - it creates a pretty blatant safety issue. Even other federations like Australia have realized that you need a single national code for traffic signals.

That would be call the last stop in California. Bike have their own lane and have priority but if they guna step over the traffic laws and think we guna give u special treatment u r sadly mistake.

Hold my beer.

Aa someone said on a different vidwo: paint is not infrastructure

Oh look the light is turning red because it’s been green for 30 seconds - I need to stop Oh look the lights turning red because there is a car at the cross street - I need to stop Oh look the light is turning red because there is a pedestrian who needs to cross- I need to stop. There is absolutely no reason for a driver to know this. In fact thousands of intersections are controlled with a pedestrian button call. It is completely irrelevant to a driver

quit blaming drivers, The amount of times I've almost been smacked by a bike running a stop sign because I chose to go is uncountable. what needs to happen is bikes need to start stopping at signs.

Thanks for your very balanced review, really appreciated your honest opinion. I have bought one but will keep an eye open for the quirks and issues you have identified. Cheers!

In ON, flashing means you can turn left over the road, for eg, because opposing traffic is stopped, like a left arrow. And yes, I was googling and googling to figure out what on earth this BC flasher was, because opposing traffic still flows. Then I gave up. Years later I realized they're pretty much stale greens along the preferred route triggered by crossing traffic. And then I thought that telling us that your light may turn red at some time is stupid because there is a yellow first, so it behaves like an ordinary light as far as you are concerned. Yellow, you stop unless you are unable. Nothing new here, except a superfluous confusing flasher.

To encourage more cyclists the country would need to go backwards in time and prevent the invention of the car.

Kevin needs a life Find a Karen

Okay Kevin.

I'd buy this scooter but the ridiculous fenders are a deal breaker. They got them right on the Air, Go, and Pro...how could they get it so wrong on this model?! Has anyone with hands-on experience been able to install fender extensions on the City? Is there even enough room between the tire and springs to fit a fender? I'm willing to fabricate a fender out of FG/CF, but if there isn't enough space to do so, I'll have to give this a pass. Thanks!

I love near there

Yo

Boohoo

Why are cyclist complaining. They literally pay $0 for road tax, fuel tax, city parking permit fees. We car drivers pay for all of the bike lanes and road upgrades. We should at least have the benefit to save few seconds.

Time out now. There are houses on that street. How the fuck they supposed ro get home if theres no cars allowed. Its a shared road. Come on man.

I often watch the behavior of vehicles pulling up to intersections where i am not meant to yield. This has saved me on many occasion. As if i get the feeling they won't properly yield i prepare my vehicle for a sudden stop by lightly braking to lose forward momentum. For example i once saw a car that was supposed to stop driving at a fast pace towards the intersection at night. But did not see his brake lights kick on. Sure enough, if i had not been watching them, they would have t-boned me at speed.

The lights being aligned for motor vehicles is to reduce waste emissions from sitting idling at the light. That's far more important.

Stop stealing the roads to make them for bikes only!

It is a nightmare trying to park down there.

you give them a whole ass lane and their own signals and they sill complain 😂 how entitled. Get a car you crazy person.

I lived in an old house on hornby, between drake and davie. From my porch, I used to watch cars drive down this bike lane, the wrong way, all the time 😂. One of my favourite things was going for a night time bike ride down this street, around canada place, through coal harbour, then second beach, along the seawall, and then back home. We called it "the loop" and i miss doing it.

Stopping at every block is crazy, judge the traffic and keep peddling!!!

1000th comment. If you're angry vancouver cyclists dont follow signs maybe you should ask how go fix the incentive structure

Another type of cyclist I have run into are those who bike against traffic. And runs a stop sign as you attempt to make a right hand turn. Then when you nearly hit them they yell at you as if you are doing something wrong. This has happened to me twice.

Honestly, as a car driver in Vancouver, I wish the city gets rid of all the bike roads in downtown area and creates more controlled intersection. Driving in DT area is horrible because of cylists and buses.

Pointless system. Cyclist shouldn't be on public roads in the first place. Pedestrians also shouldn't be walking on the roads to cross. Pedestrians should be using an overpass to cross. 🤦‍♂️

FINALY someone who posted about British Columbia where I live

Interesting focus on the local streets - yeah from my experience these really are the backbone of the cycling network, and kid of make up for the lack of proper network of protected cycle tracks. It seemed like most trips were local, which serves these types of trips, only having to occasionally cross an arterial every now and then (which you could legally ride on the sidewalk as well). Also saw a lot of kids cycling on their own and and moms with child seats on their bikes, which is a positive indicator that the infrastructure is working (if a majority of your cyclists are in guys in lycra suits on road bikes, your city is doing something wrong 😅).

Yes, let's prioritize the miniscule percentile of bike traffic versus cars. Brilliant.

99% of cyclists don't even use the "bike lanes". They do whatever they want they blow reds, stop signs and split lanes in traffic. No compassion. I hate cyclists.

id jist keep driving, if the cyclist doesnt stop for the stop sign, why should i stop where there isnt one?

I am a biker in Colorado and they recently legalized making it so bikers do not have to follow stopsigns. It pisses me off so i have never done this law. When you are on a bicycle you are a vehicle thus you must follow the same laws that a vehicle would follow. It also gives us a bad rep.

A lot more intuitive than those useless hawk signals

Have you ever heard the California stop

This is even worse when people stop for people jaywalking. Dangerous as all hell.

if you want your own infrastructure you should be paying insurance for it. the amount of cyclists that blow through stop signs and lights is insane. I like to make eye contact and when thwy blow the stop sign I go since I am following the rules of the road and they are at fault flying over my.hood

well since cars pay for road maintenance, damn rights vehicles drive on ot. you want bike only.lanes they should be paying for their own insurance to fund thie bike lanes. the entitlement of these cyclists is rediculous. the rules of the road do apply to you
