A reminder to the news media: âconflicting accountsâ is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

Some people will say you need to fix road design rather than rely on enforcement. I think you need to do that too, yes. But Doug Ford is also the one trying to ban any loss of road space for cars to bikes! Most people against speed enforcement also oppose road redesigns.
