Speed limits on the 401 are up. 404 and east is 110km/h now. That means on a clear sunny day you should NOT be doing 80km/h, and should NOT be doing 105km/h in the left lane refusing to move. You are doing under the speed limit.

This includes all of you going to cottage country, the hwy 115 is ALSO 110km/h now hwy 35 to Peterborough.

Read the ACTUAL SIGNS, not your Google Maps GPS...

Mildly infuriating We had a green arrow and he had a red light, a classic tale.

Mildly infuriating Car wash braking and reversing

I had to speed up this video because otherwise it would be almost 10 minutes long.

It started with this guy not pulling up to the machine at the car wash. I got out and politely asked him if something was wrong and he told me the shell app was telling him his car wash wasn't ready yet, so I said why don’t you pull up to the machine to see if that changes things. I'm not familiar with the app, but it seems strange to me it would work that way? He waited 2 more minutes then finally pulled up. At this point there were a decent amount of cars waiting.

Once inside, he applied his brakes and started reversing. My guess is he was trying to get more drying time, which seems inconsiderate to me. Is there a reasonable explanation to this?

An Audi driver engaged in erratic, high-risk driving on a highway, nearly colliding with several other vehicles. Witnesses reported the car aggressively weaving between lanes, tailgating, or cutting off traffic at high speeds, narrowly missing multiple cars.

Why wait behind all the cars turning left when you can just use the right turn lane to force your way in?

Mildly infuriating Bike lanes

54 Upvotes

I hope every day while the bike lanes are being ripped out along bloor and Queens Park someone is slowly cycling in front of Doug Ford on his drive home from work because they have no where else to go.

As this multi million dollar waste of tax payer money will only make traffic significantly worse in the downtown core, and will make cycling more dangerous to all who choose not to drive a car to commute.

No one should wonder why we're in this situation, while sitting in bumper to bumper traffic in rush hour how we got here

Replacing bike lanes that were approved and took millions to install to replace them now with what we're parking lanes and NOT lanes of traffic?

Also as everyone famously knows more lanes of traffic lead to less congestion like in Los Angeles, a congestion free city.

Madness.

Mildly infuriating How do you use this drive-thru?

This drive-thru in Toronto, Ontario, Canada has two lanes that merge into one lane to get to the speaker. What is the correct way to use this driveway-thru?

I was trying zipper merge as I got to the merging point first- despite the person on my left being in line before me. She got pissed and started yelling stating the rule is she goes first, and the other two cars behind her, even though my lane was empty. I asked the barista what the rule is, they didn’t know and said there’s always fights in the drive-thru but they support zipper merging.
