Some attempting to parallel park will still be doing so by the time you’ve finished reading this column and posting it to multiple social media. Many driver’s licences seem to have been issued in exchange for contributions at Christmas toy drives.
Judging by the roads of Vancouver, it appears some cars do not come in 2021 with signal indicators as standard equipment.
#SAVE THE HOSTAGE IN THE UPPER CITY DRIVERS#
The result is policy that pleases no one, brooks victory and defeat episode after episode, and ultimately entrenches the cleavage.īefore mounting arguments for either party, let’s admit: we are a city replete with terrible drivers and terrible cyclists. The antagonists and advocates on either end of the discussion do not represent the vast majority they profess to, yet hog the attention and activities of the city administration and across the airwaves and internet. The belittling and bickering prevents us from getting along. In living for nearly two decades in this city and in travelling near and far, I’ve never seen a place so engrossed in grievances and utterly bitchy about the other person’s bike or car. We need a Chief Motorist-Cyclist Mediator, a Director of Rational Transport, a Guru of Resolving Vehicular Quarrels. It needs many new leaders – even if we muse about the person at the top for a moment, it needs a new city manager and now, suddenly without explanation, a new chief planner.īut before we fix the upper echelon to create Utopia, may we add to the list a chronic need to address so much tension and animosity in what ought to be the Zen capital of the country?
The City of Vancouver government needs much.
