Here in Toronto one of our largest city parks ( High Park ) is about 400 acres in size, with a road net work that are public roads with a low maximum speed of 20 kilometers / 12 miles an hour, for all vehicles, including bicycles. The problem ? The bike riders refuse to stop at the stop signs, they ride in groups of 15 to 30 people. They ride spread out across all lanes of the one way park roads, and intimidate people on foot. The Toronto Police Service, in response to dozens of complaint phone calls, sent 2 officers to High Park on a Saturday when the park roads are closed to cars, and they started using a Lidar device to clock the bike riders. Speeding tickets were issued to 16 bike riders, for going faster than the 20kph/12 mph limit. 17 tickets were issued for " Fail to stop at a stop sign " and 5 for "no lights front or back ". The bike community went nuts claiming that Police were " picking on them ". The chief of Police produced traffic ticket records that showed that from January of 2022, to the first of September this year , the TPS had written 1,956 tickets for car driver offences, in High Park. That shut them up quickly. Entitled and arrogant jerks . JimB.
