Bike Box Vancouver
55% of all bicycle accidents, in vancouver, occur in intersections. 30% of these involve right hand turns. When accidents occur between cyclists and motorist, the cyclist loses 100% of the time. By signing this petition you are supporting our movement to have the city of Vancouver install green bike boxes at major lighted intersections that run along bike routes. A bike box is a safe zone for cyclists to stop at during a red light. Cars stop behind the bike box allowing cyclists traveling straight through the intersection the right of way over cars making right hand turns. This prevents the unfortunately common "right hook" accident from occurring. For more information check out our facebook page http://www.facebook.com/#!/BikeBoxVancouver/info
