Fair, but I would take Waymos over Rob Ford being allowed to drive any day. As a bicycle commuter I find that Waymos are quite pleasant to share the road with. They generally try to avoid hitting me. Never had a Waymo swerve into my lane, or try to sideswipe me, or accelerate to cut me off to make a right turn, or make overt death treats because "roads are for cars".
replyBike lines don't send Canadian money to a startup in the USA so I guess bike lines don't have financial means to lobby the government.
replyI'd 100% rather bike around a Waymo than a human driver.
replyToronto is embroiled in partisan politicking around bike lanes. The provincial premiere is overriding city council to have them removed, which is what I suspect is the motivation behind the parent comment.
replyI'd rather not have any roads people can walk.
replyIt'd be good to have more bike lanes, and waymo-type transport being used as a part of a public transport ecosystem rather than just pure taxi.
replyboth?
replyboth!
The bike lanes are being removed by our conservative government. So not both :(
replyPlease, not this shit again.
replyFord is already removing bike lanes.
Tax dollars to put in bike lanes, and then tax dollars to remove them.
You will never stop hearing about this until they are restored. Also enjoy your very slow commute with all the bikes now legally required to ride in the car lane and block you.
replyYes, this shit again. Rolling more steel boxes through the city is not the answer.
replyI'm sure disabled or elderly people would agree with you.
