Global News watched three cyclists ignore the stop sign and flashing lights on two school buses on Friday afternoon alone, not far from where a person on a bicycle hit a child.

Residents in Montreal 's Plateau neighbourhood are fed up. They want better road safety measures after a child about to board a school bus was struck by a cyclist. .“I just sat in front of my house and I witnessed another cyclist going right through a stop sign with a school bus letting kids off,” says Mayer Feig who lives on Jeanne-Mance.

The child’s family didn’t want to speak to media Friday afternoon, but Feig says the accident doesn’t surprise him. “Well, there seems to be a lot of misunderstanding about rules,” she explains. “The truth is, it’s only since 2018 that this particular article of the highway code has been applied to cyclists.”RateMDs faces certified class-action lawsuit over alleged breach of privacythe law states that cyclists must “stop at least 5 metres from a school bus or minibus with its flashing red lights or stop sign in operation, and do not proceed until the red lights are off and the stop sign is retracted.
