8·2 days agoI sure hope all the people that are against speed cameras are the same people that support traffic calming measures like raised mediums, planters and trees, narrower city streets and lanes, dedicated and protected bike lanes, raised pedestrian crossways and crosswalks, wide sidewalks and dedicated pedestrian only zones.
Too many roadways in north America lack proper classifications, we have suburban streets designed like throughway roads, we have roads acting like full on hwys, and don’t get me started on all the strodes everywhere!
Streets are desitnations. Streets are multi use and serve the local area. Shops and homes face streets, streets can have stop signs or signalized intersections. Streets have sidewalks and in some cases the full street is the “sidewalk”. Streets generally do not exceed two lanes of dedicated traffic. Speed limits range from 10-40kph
Roads are throughways, roads dont have signalized intersections, instead they opt for roundabouts or off ramps where needed. Homes or shops do not face roads and driveways do not connect to roads. Pedestrian sidewalks do not run along roads, instead trails or paths may be located adjacent to a road with dedicated seperate crossing such as bridges or tunnels. Roads generally do not exceed 3 lanes of dedicated traffic. Speeds limits range from 50-80kph
And hwys are for long distant travel. Which I believe most people are accustomed too already. Speed limits range from 80-110kph

Because it aligns with his suburban voter base, and the city mayor in Brampton is his opposition I believe?

If corporations are people, why not just lock up the whole corporation, or maybe just the whole C-suite?
Ohh man this brings back DOS vibes

Most of these business owners should then be open to the idea we move their shop as is, and put it right up to a highway. Where the front door opens right into a lane of car traffic.
Reading this “smart enough to start running the section already complete” made me happy.
Cities lined with trees help keep the urban heat island effect down and helps keep cities cool. It’s a shame that one parked car could ruin this for a whole neighborhood street.
Nor anyone else :(
Also, trees help keep heat down in cities, which means cooler cities and people not having to run their AC as often.
Feel like you’re wearing a long sleeve sweater without wearing a long sleeve sweater?
I am surprised by Sweden and Denmark being in favor.
