I'm an avid cyclist. Let's stop building all these ridiculous concrete barricades and bumpers and plastic "slappers" and hectares of green paint. None of it is effective, and it's ugly. I actually prefer to ride in traffic because I'm aware and don't have a false sense of security. Sorry, but Fake London is NOT Amsterdam (yes, I've ridden a bicycle there, too). How about spending all these millions on educating kids (and adults) how to ride safely? Do you remember Bike Rodeos? Yes, I got 100% at a Rodeo as a kid, and that taught me how to ride around downtown Toronto without injury. Spend a few bucks on educating motorists, too...

I appreciate that you highlighted left turns are still allowed to be handled from the left lane. I've had cars get upset because I merged into traffic to use the left turn lane, or turned left but merged back into the bike lane. We are still vehicles. Just because there are these new lanes doesn't mean cars stop sharing the road.

Can’t believe I’m just seeing this! Great video, great channel. I have had a couple incidents over the years that I would have loved to be prepared for. One time the passenger of a pickup truck threw a can at my head while they drove past me. In SPRINGBANK PARK! Let me tell you, if I had been rational enough to take a picture of the license plate, that fucker would have 100% been charged with assault!

I have lived and cycled in London for almost 50 years. I do not like these new intersections. They are visually confusing and don't work for riding as a vehicle not a pedestrian. Particularly at Ridout and Commissioners. If I am riding north wanting to turn right and the light is green, I will need to almost stop before turning. Marking the bike lanes with green lines through the intersection is much clearer. Without slowing the pace of cars through the intersection, I do not think they will have the desired effect I also think the recent separation of the bike lanes on Cheapside is a bad idea. The cars were going slower before they were put in place. Now that the cars can ignore the bikes they are going faster again. I applaud the effort to get more people riding bikes and make it safer. But new things should be tested and proven before used elsewhere. There may be some situations that are more suitable and some that are not. Like using roundabouts in neighbourhoods before main intersections.

yes i think we should look at the effects first before expanding, but have expansion plans in the works quickly

@MrPage62 3 күн бұрын

I agree. I've been a cyclist for about as long as you. Sometimes, it seems these bike lanes create more harm than good. 1) False sense of security for cyclists. 2) Motorists become confused (trust me, that happened to me recently when I was on my bike). 3) Just a plain, ugly confusing mess that works for no one. Did you know the Bicycle Signal light at Dundas and Ridout allows cars to turn left from the opposite direction? I've been almost hit more than once thinking I had clear right of way. Just. Plain. Stupid. I've ridden around downtown T.O. before there were any bike lanes and survived. Somehow, I have more difficulty dealing with bike lanes and these confusing intersections than I do just dealing with plain old traffic!

@davidbee9563 2 күн бұрын

@@MrPage62 I cycle up Riidout to Dundas on my way to work. To get to Riverside W, I take the bike lane the wrong way on the west side from King to Dundas then turn left down the hill past the Gallery the wrong way to the bridge and Wharncliffe Rd. This avoids two awkward interactions with traffic. Not strictly according to the rules but much easier.

European here: roundabouts are highly common in Europe and are an efficient tool but the French are just crazy: they put them everywhere. It's the opposite extreme of North America. That said, stop signs really suck and should remain an exception, when there really *is* no other way.

@sequentious 11 күн бұрын

It depends on whether these are considered crossovers, or crosswalks. Drivers must yield the entire road at crossovers, but have a much more vague "yield to pedestrians" at crosswalks. The video describes them as crosswalks, so arguably the truck didn't do anything wrong if that was the case. My two cents is that these are signed as crossovers ("stop for pedestrians" and indicator triangles) so the truck should have yielded the whole road until the pedestrians were on the sidewalk.

Best way to use a round about is sideways at speed

@Xerdoz Ай бұрын

01:40 Why do you put cyclists amongst vehicle traffic? That is just stupid. There's all that space to build a bicycle lane next to the pedestrian path or just have a path where you can walk or cycle or crawl if you so choose. Nobody is going to walk in North America anyways. I do have to give props for using the signals correctly, unlike people in actual London (UK). There is no need to indicate "inwards" ever. There are two options for people inside the roundabout. Either they stay on that lane and drive straight or they take an exit. If they're not indicating, they're not taking the exit. Very simple.
