The Service de police de la Ville de Montréal are busy with a summer programme of cycling law enforcement. I wouldn't normally post this fairly mundane article but the SPVM officer interviewed has an interesting take on the chronology of road usage:
"Our North American cities where built back in the 18/1900s with only horses in mind. Then cars appeared then cyclists and then pedestrians ...the population is increasing but our roads are not getting any wider...".
Once again, to recap: horses, then cars, then cyclists then pedestrians!
