New data shows that zero cars are using any of the roads I walked on tonight, including the "opened to cars" Queen Elizabeth. Watch this video as a great example. I've got nearly two and a half minutes and not one car passed me. #ottWalk #ottBike #ottScoot @_MarkSutcliffe

New data shows that very few cyclists and pedestrians are using Queen Elizabeth Driveway when it's closed to cars. Watch this video as a great example. When I recorded it yesterday afternoon, not a single pedestrian or cyclist passed me for the entire two and a half minutes.

Next time someone says cyclists impact emergency vehicles, imagine 200 drivers in this situation. We communicated & got out of the way. Same has been said by many on QED when they saw everyone just move out of the way. Another anti-bicycle bingo card entry the mayor uses #ottBike
