Only 19 charges for <1 m passing in Ontario in ~11 months. I've been waiting to see these numbers and I'm not surprised at all. You can't blame this on police, the law is just almost impossible to enforce. And anecdotally, I would guess I experience a <1 m pass once a week, so I don't believe that its because drivers are in almost 100% compliance.
No data to support this but I suggest that almost all of the 19 charges were most likely laid as a result of bicycle-vehicle collision. #BVC I agree it is almost impossible to enforce in traffic.
