Information related to intersections.
Your recent bicycle column stirred me to ask a question about cyclists passing on the right. I was in Kelowna, travelling north on Harvey Avenue and wanted to turn right into a strip mall. Harvey Avenue is three lanes wide here and the curb lane is an HOV lane.
I've noticed a new way to do a left turn onto a busy four lane highway near my home. You stop at the stop sign, look both ways, then turn left onto the traffic island. Once there, you check behind and move right into the fast lane if there is room. If not, you stop and wait until there is room to proceed.

Question: I was issued a traffic violation for beating a red light at Hastings and Gore which I am certain that I did not. My son, who was the front seat passenger was my witness to the incident. However, I am not certain the court will accept his testimony because of our relationship. What are my chances of winning the dispute?
In this case before The Honourable Mr. Justice G.R. Gaul, the plaintiff, David Vagramov is suing the defendant, Shaun Zipursky for damages resulting from a motor vehicle collision at an uncontrolled intersection.
I was sitting at a red light this afternoon watching the approaching traffic. Two vehicles entered the left turn lane on the street to my left, one unremarkable and the other covered in advertising telling me that it was the courtesy vehicle for a well known collision repair company. Both were signaling for the left turn.
Chelsea Fisher was driving westbound on 43 Avenue just past 32 Street in Vernon. She was approaching the intersection where traffic for the mall entered onto 43 Avenue in a T intersection to her right. Robert Karol had stopped at the stop sign to exit the mall parking lot and intended to turn left onto 43 Avenue. He proceeded from the stop sign, did not yield to Ms. Fisher and a collision resulted.
