As people outside of cars, weโve all been at the receiving end of right turns on red. How many near misses have you experienced or witnessed? Yet City staff recommends against a blanket ban of right on reds. Oppose their recommendation. Take action now! ๐

Sick of turns on red? If you live in Vancouver, please write or speak in support of restricting them!
Here's how:

...HOLY SHIT a driver just flew through the intersection right in front of us, missing our front wheel by inches.
#RightOnRed is legal here, after all, and the intersection design hardly forces drivers to slow down to make this right turn. So we've got to expect this to happen. We chastise ourselves for letting our guard down for a split second. That was a close one!
We look up and see the countdown timer says 7 seconds already...

To those who believe cyclists should be banned from turning #rightOnRed (or allowed for all): are you trying to prioritize fairness over safety?

"Washington, D.C., will end most right-on-red turns by 2025. Already, the state of Hawaii has prohibited them on a tourist-dense stretch of road in Honolulu. The city of Berkeley in California is considering banning right on red at all intersections. Near the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, the city last fall banned right turns at 50 signalized intersections in its downtown core."
