Do you know how to use an 'elephant's feet' crosswalk? [CBC article] (www.cbc.ca)

I've noticed these popping up around the city. They've added some of them on the Goose.

Yeah they are nothing special, just designating this as a bicycle through lane, which keeps priority on the bicycles, instead of a car priority "bicycles dismount" style.

Yep! It's a good article from the CBC. I think they explain it well. As a cyclist, it's good to get this information out in the wild for people who aren't aware. I've been almost hit by enough cars 😅
