Compilation of Drivers Violating King St Rules for Unauthorized Vehicles, IS DRIVING THE TTC CRAZY!

This is a compilation of drivers that are either confused about the signage, or ignoring the signage.

Either way, it results in people (driving unauthorized vehicles) violating the rules, by either going straight, or sitting there holding up authorized vehicles and it's driving the TTC crazy!

I posted this compilation for entertainment reasons.


King Street in Toronto has a TTC streetcar/bus priority corridor that runs east/west from Jarvis St to Bathurst St.

Throughout the corridor at most intersections, drivers can only turn right.
TTC vehicles, all buses, cyclists, construction vehicles, emergency vehicles, and other authorized vehicles are allowed to go straight.

The goal, is to speed up TTC (Toronto Transit Commission) service by reducing the number of vehicles on the road.

Unfortunately, drivers are regularly not following the rules and are either confused, or ignoring the road signs that forbid them from going straight.

This increased TTC streetcar/bus travel times significantly. Articles and studies prove it.

Now, new changes to traffic signals will never allow drivers to go straight!

New dedicated signals for TTC vehicles and authorized vehicles were installed as well!

The TTC & authorized vehicle signals will be green during the right turn phase and the pedestrian phase.
The yellow vehicle signals will never turn green anymore! It will only display the right turn green arrow when the light is red.

For drivers that don't follow the King St rules (or those that don't read road signs) where you cannot go straight, they'll be waiting at the red light, as long as it takes for them to read the road signs and turn right.

Because most Torontonians don't seem to know how to read road signs, hopefully it forces them to read the signage and just turn right.

It proves just how many Torontonians don't pay attention to or read road signs, and how many Torontonians should not have their driver's license.

This was also done, because it means unauthorized drivers going straight is considered running a red light. It will be easier to accuse people for breaking the rules, because running a red light is a bigger violation than disobeying a "no going straight" sign.
