Bad Driving - March 2026

This month a driver intentionally drove into me because I was 'going too slowly' on a narrow residential street (15th Ave near Fraser St). Unfortunately I wasn't wearing my camera and the VPD won't take any concrete action without evidence (and yet when I do give them videos, they also won't take any concrete action). Much shorter than usual. Partly due to filming less, partly due to not bothering to clip most things. Laws should match real-life behaviour. If a law isn't being followed then, depending on the situation (including constraints like budget), we should change the law, enforce the law, and/or redesign the environment. For example, if drivers aren't stopping at a particular stop sign then change the law to allow them to do this (bad idea, yield signs fill this purpose already), put up a camera with automated ticketing (relatively simple, would pay for itself and/or stop the behaviour), or replace the stop sign with a yield sign or with a roundabout (or make the street car-free). Pedestrians not using the right half of the crosswalk? Remove that law (yes, this is a bylaw in several municipalities...). Cyclists treating stop signs as yield signs because studies show that it's safer? Make it legal (several US states have done this). Drivers not giving enough space when passing cyclists? Separated bike lanes. I can't distinguish between drivers who aren't going to stop and are about to accelerate into my path, vs drivers who are going to stop a car-length beyond the stop line. Just stop at the stop line, it's there for a reason and makes it clear that you've seen me and gives me more reaction time if you haven't. 0:00 Through red light 0:42 Passing too close 1:16 Yielding/'stopping 3:59 Parked incorrectly Reminders: It's illegally for a car to use/park in/stop in a bike lane (except to turn right, and only when it's a dashed line). You must give at least 1-1.5m of space when passing cyclists - measured from the extremities, i.e. side mirror to handle bar. If you can safely stop for a yellow light, you must do so. You must stop for a red light. (Even when turning right.) Turn into the nearest (right-most or left-most) lane, unless otherwise marked. Pull over and stop when there are emergency vehicles with sirens. Yield to pedestrians in (marked or unmarked) crosswalks. Don't reverse over a crosswalk or into an intersection. Don't enter an intersection or marked crosswalk unless you know you have space to exit it. Don't park/stop within 5-6m of fire hydrants, crosswalks, and stop signs. In Vancouver, you can essentially only do a reverse turn at roundabouts or dead-end streets.
