One comment I would make is to give the driver the responsiblity for the actions of their vehicle. The car only (usually anyway) moves or turns as a result of the drivers actions or in-actions. Example: The motor vehicle driver should merge (their vehicle) safetly into the right most lane, and the right most portion of that lane, to not allow cyclists to pass on the right. Further I would suggest that the ministry of transportation reply to suggestions like this and indicate why they are flawed. I agree with your comments.

I should be more mindful about responsibility. It would be useful for the ministry to reply, but I wonder if they'd get too bogged down in sending such letters. On the other hand, they'd probably end up being able to create a bunch of genericish letters that cover common situations. Perhaps this could even be included as a FAQ on their website... Ah wishful thinking. Good point. I should be more mindful about responsibility.
