@Elmira Guy Didn't mean to imply it wasn't, I actually came here to post it too .
@MidTowner You're absolutely right. I find this very frustrating, police seem unwilling to lay any charges when they can't measure it directly. Even Ottawa which seems incredibly progressive about this to the point of having bicycle mounted police officers issue these charges seemed to feel that a measuring device was necessary to do so.
I do find it frustrating that hitting a cyclist doesn't illicit a charge of dangerous or careless driving though.
