Office of the Ontario Premier 

SIDEWALKS TO BE ELIMINATED 

For immediate release: 

Ontario Premier Doug Ford today announced that beginning October 1,  sidewalks in municipalities with a population over 70,000 will become  illegal. 

“Sidewalks serve no useful purpose and take up valuable space which can be  better employed in the service of cars. Their eradication will allow for an extra traffic lane on most city streets which will solve our traffic congestion problems and allow cars to get around much faster,” he said. “One more lane will get ‘er done,” he added.

“From now on, pedestrians are advised to walk on the centre white line of city streets and wear fuchsia day-glo outerwear to remain visible, especially since motorized vehicles, now unencumbered by speed cameras, will generally be travelling 40 or 50 km over the posted speed limit,” the premier said. “In heavy traffic areas, pedestrians are also urged to carry ‘PLEASE DON’T HIT ME’ signs as an extra precaution. Don’t forget to include the word ‘PLEASE’ on your signs as a courtesy to drivers.”

The premier said he is also looking at eliminating painted crosswalks since three months after they’re painted they’re invisible anyway. “Road painting equipment can be converted into Zambonis,” he said.

Crews will begin ripping out sidewalks as soon as practicable.

                      One one level this is quite amusing, on another this shows the sheer level of lawlesness in late 1990s Britain (particularly on the roads)

                      A bunch of middle class bros running a fairly dubious car magazine (basically a "lad mag" with cars, often advocating poor ) facilitated a foreigner to travel here in a vehicle that was likely not 100% road legal for UK, commit a serious traffic offence and there were only minor consequences for the driver (a fine + 10 year ban from entering the UK) and *none* for the Max Power editors.

                      Smokey Nagata *was* fairly repentant (they did at least pick a with barely any traffic on it) and feared the publicity would affect his business, but it had the opposite effect (he's still alive and tuning today!)

She smiles and stands astride an ornately pinstriped metallic green bicycle with gold handlebars and green marijuana-leaf themed rims. The photo is taken on a sidewalk against a downtown scene.

                                                      The thought of launching a one-ton battery pack presently ejecting streams of hot flaming gases ten meters away is as horrifying as it is hilarious.
