I'm really excited to see the pillars go up! I've been trying to get out on my bike as much as possible to go look at the construction. Also hello everyone! I've been lurking the form for a while, and finally decided to make an account. I think I saw some of you on the 5am Valley Line ride.

We should take away these folks licenses and make them pay for the damages.

I'm sure they're written up for the illegal right turn on the red light.

F*** right turns on a red. One of the most dangerous and stupid traffic laws ever. Genuinely makes life worse for everyone, especially pedestrians and apparently LRT vehicles now.

Can’t agree more.

I saw the yegwave video that’s claimed to be this incident and that right there is a license that needs to be taken away.

The vehicle was on the tracks at one point lol

If the driver/car was on the track, then a ban on right on red is not going to solve that guys problems. Should never have gotten a license in the first place as common sense is awol...

Right turn on red isn’t a problem. People just suck at driving

 

[Seamusmuldrew]

I'd argue it facilitates poor driving. I find the places with no right turn on red such as the Whyte scrambles are a far more pleasant pedestrian and driving experience because that point of conflict is removed.

Was there a collision in that video? It just shows a pickup on the tracks with LRVs still slowly moving north and southbound.

I remember reading that was the truck that got hit, but again it could be a completely different incident on the same day.

That is why it is a problem. People are in the habit of looking left for a break in the traffic to make a right turn then pull out without checking before pulling out. If you can’t fix this 100% it will continue to be an issue. I know you do it as well as every other driver on the road.

Left turns are an anathema to good traffic planning (except in Britain, Japan, Australia, etc., etc.)
