Apparently 'wait' is a four letter word.
You can't really blame her though -- the most visible cycle advocacy organization in Ontario is supporting the conclusion: bicycles can't use the road network according to them and need a special bike lane in to the side. The journalist is merely reflecting the aggressive lobbying and retailing of a point of view held by many bicycling advocates and the frustration felt by car drivers who have been reinforced in their belief that they should be allowed to tear along at high speeds in urban areas.
