Honestly, I think the biggest step to improving cycling safety in Westdale isn't worrying about cyclists blowing through all-way stops (since traffic is generally going slow enough that the worst that can cause is some angry words exchanged) but the generally poor lighting on these bikes. It constantly boggles my mind that bike shops sell vehicles that are not legal to ride at night on Ontario streets. So many cyclists are practically invisible on the road. I'm not asking for reflective vests, just get the mandatory reflectors or magnetic tape and some front and rear lights on your bikes. Seriously. But either way, these days a set of front/rear LEDs are so cheap you could have bylaw officers flag down cyclists and give them away.
