Ian Tootill with Sense BC thinks the Idaho Stop would have support in the Lower Mainland, where many people use their bikes to commute and are already using the practice.
Basically if everyone is already doing it, why not make it law that it's ok?
It's not like there were any cops out enforcing the current law. Has anyone ever seen a bicycle get pulled over? I've never seen it either as a pedestrian nor a driver.
