As a driver, I used to be a bike lane hater. But then I moved to the suburbs. They benefit both the driver and the cyclist. They keep everyone safe and help traffic move along.

The worst is when a bus or large truck has to suddenly switch lanes to avoid a cyclist sharing the road. That greatly slows down traffic and creates an unsafe environment.

We don’t get many cyclists out here but we have bike lanes now and I think that’s best for everyone except Doug Ford and his cronies 🙃
