The city of Kjipuktuk (Halifax) has started to install more rectangular rapid flashing beacons on crosswalks due to concerns with drivers failing to yield to people crossing. Some also have audio signals for people with visual impairments that say...

A fitting end to an underwhelming 2025 on the mean streets of #ZeroVisionHFX. I happened to be walking by as the driver of a large truck pulled into the University Ave bike Lane and flattened the flexiposts on the way. There's a loading bay at the...

There's never a dull moment on the All Ages and Abilities network in Halifax (Kjipuktuk). Today, a driver on the wrong side of the road forces two other drivers to take evasive action in ways that put other road users (including me!) at risk. Just...

A few days after NEW signs are added to an all-way stop, drivers still seem incapable of reading them.

The start of my commute was a bit spicy with a container truck driver who didn't seem to know where they were going or what they were doing so just decided to break the law & run over a flexible bollard. Plus a Tesla driver parked in the bike lane...

Cycling down a painted bike lane behind someone on an electric unicyle with a dog running alongside. Yet more evidence that bike lanes are for everyone!

A close up and slowed down clip of a driver who was on his phone in his truck when the traffic at an intersection began to move. The driver has his phone in his lap and is using it with what looks like both hands as he moves forward. As he goes th...

A 15 second video from my bicycle camera which shows a large truck pulling out of a side street onto a local street bikeway in Halifax/Kjipuktuk, Canada (July 9 2025). The driver, high up in his cab, clearly cannot see me legally riding along the ...

Biking behind someone on a skateboard and an electric unicycle on a local Street Bikeway (LSB) in Kjipuktuk/Halifax, Canada. Bike infrastructure isn't just about bikes.

A short video of a recyling truck driver making an illegal left turn through an intersection that forms part of Kjipuktuk/Halifax, Nova Scotia's supposedly AAA bicycle network. This intersection has signs that restrict drivers from making left or ...

There's never a dull moment on my bike commute in Halifax/Kjipuktuk. In this short clip, a driver failed to stop at a stop sign and was almost hit by a bus. The bus driver laid on the horn to express their frustration at this clear example of dang...

A before and after clip of a local street bikeway intersection in Kjipuktuk/Halifax, Nova Scotia. In the 'before' clip, a driver is in the bike lane and turning left, ignoring the 'right turn only' signs for drivers. In the 'after' clip, flexipost...

A video from a cyclist's POV approaching a 4-way intersection of a local street bikeway in Kjipuktuk/Halifax. A driver approaches the intersection from right to left and fails to stop at the Stop sign. It's the summer holidays, otherwise this inte...

The May '24 Critical Mass ride in Halifax/Kjipuktuk was joined by three young riders who upped the #BikeJoy quotient a few notches more. They jumped around like jack rabbits and did wheelies. Love to see it!

While waiting to cross Quinpool Road to the Vernon Local Street Bikeway (LSB) in Halifax/Kjipuktuk, I witnessed two drivers blowing through a red light. The video clearly shows the drivers who turned onto the LSB proceeding through a red light, wh...

I came across this interesting stop sign in Halifax/Kjipuktuk which had lights around it, presumably for greater visibility. As I was filming, a truck rolled through the stop sign, nicely illustrating that signs don't work, even if they are lit up...
