This news of the City’s crack down on cyclists is ridiculous. Sure, there are probably some behaviors that need to be changed, and with the installation of more racks, and a bit of education, the problem could be addressed.

BUT, WHERE IS THE CITY when it comes to regulating those dangerous scooter drivers?!?!?!?! They are constantly screaming down sidewalks that I am walking on, nearly crashing into me, because they don’t want to observe the one-way street rules. They are parking on the sidewalks forcing me as a pedestrian into the street to get around. And that’s not even touching on the dangerous behavior when they are actually on the roads, weaving between cars, honking like they own the road and have no responsibility to follow any of the rules of it. I’m sick of the nasty, dangerous scooter driver behavior in this city. The City should be cracking down on THEM first.
