94% of bike riders killed by a vehicle were killed on streets without protected bike lanes.
Protected bike lanes save lives, and make streets significantly safer for all road users.
We need more protected bike lanes.

The short answer is yes, people with hearing loss or profound Deafness can drive in Canada. In fact, MTO states that Deaf drivers pass the same driving test as people who hear, and the Insurance Bureau of Canada states that hearing has no bearing on auto insurance
Ontario's Law allows you to drive even if you have hearing problems. I noticed a vehicle that did not respond to the sirens of an ambulance trying to get the attention of this elderly driver to move over so he could get to the hospital. He did not respond. The law needs change.
@carsNbikelane@car_in_bikelane Its is great that our cities create bike lanes, but some city councils do not empower their parking authority employees to ticket the individuals with heavy fines that will make them think the next time about ever parking in a bike lane.

Road safety improvements are ongoing on Dundas St E throughout July between Greenwood Ave and Alton Ave, which include reversing the bike lane and on-street parking and adding concrete curbs to the bike lane in certain sections, reducing corner radii... (1/2)
