The first ever province-wide review of cycling deaths will examine fatalities from 2006 to 2010, try to identify common factors and make recommendations to prevent future deaths. Coroner’s inquests do not assign blame or make any judicial findings.
D - the pic is of a "ghost bike".
Recycle cycles made on for that fellow on University Ave. last year. But
1) they assumed everybody knows what a ghost bike is, and
2) they locked it to a sign. The bike was simply lifted over the top of the sign, and ended up by a dumpster on the residential property I live at.
D - a large laminated "what is a ghost bike" would have actually increased awareness, as opposed to just eliciting curiosity and puzzlement from the public.

Grr, Bulent is not saving the file pic.
Ok, look up Caroline and Erb in Waterloo.
I've seen so many cyclists blow through the pedestrian cross walks once the walk sign has expired. And nearly get splattered.
On Thanksgiving weekend, I saw a truck pulling a ?! plane with no wings on a trailer.
A cyclist cut in front of him as he tried to turn right onto Erb from the one way.
He hauled on the brakes and got within a meter of the cyclist.
I've been cut off in my car by a cyclist heading off the trail to Caroline as I turned left onto Erb.
I'm not sure what about this corner makes cyclists so nonchalant, but they are their own worst enemies.
I dismount and walk my bike across when I use the pedestrian crosswalk.
Playing chicken on a bike against a ton of steel is not a wise career choice.
