Council approves HOV lanes for motorcycles

[Bogdon]

Are the signs changed yet?

[west_m]

No, not that I'm aware of. Funny thing is I thought it was approved some time ago so I didn't give a xxxx to anyone.

I used the Eglinton HOV lane this morning. Rode past a cop and was not stopped. Maybe i just got lucky? But i will print out the notice from the City's website and keep it with me just in case.

You don't need to print anything. That is the cops job TO KNOW ! If he doesn't know then make him look like the dummy he is.

Sure, you can do that while he's writing you your ticket. Then you can take some time off work to go to court and do it again in front of a judge. Personally, I don't have the time or the desire to do either, when a simple printed sheet of paper saves everyone the trouble.

My thought exactly. Hell, people are still occasionally getting tickets for parking their bikes in pay & display spots. I don't understand why people are so resistant to the idea of being proactive, rather than reactive. Maybe it's just because you have nothing to ***** and moan about online, if you've planned ahead?

I was riding on Don Mills from Finch to Eglinton this morning and it was amazing... I didn't record the time but it must be the quickest trip I have done in 17 years.

Just rode that stretch today...was so nice, not being squeezed or run down all the time!

Wow...another great trip on Don Mills this morning.
The traffic was backed up all the way from Sheppard to York Mills.
Still no change of signs yet.

Did the same trip this morning but started at Finch. From Sheppard to York Mills the cagers were crawling slower than the traffic on the DVP. Saw a lot of cheaters sneaking in to get ahead then ducking out. Took me 20mins to get from 404/Finch to Yonge/Gardiner this morning which usually takes about an hour.

On Don Mills south of Sheppard, there was a cop doing HOV checks. Didnt even look at me as I rode by.

I guess the memo is out!

Was it a blue stealth car? Now that I ride the diamond lanes I want heavy enforcement on the cagers who cheat.

or he didn't care. I've seen cops sit there watching single passenger cars drive by in the diamond lanes and do nothing

I saw some delivery trucks pulled over by the cop this morning.
