The 401 highway in Canada has the most traffic out of any road or highway in all of north America.

Because of this traffic, the average speed can drop to a stand still.

If Canada had high speed rail that took a similar route, it would be abled to transport people from different cities to Toronto's city center over 4 times faster.

The amount of cars this would take off the road would significantly reduce traffic, which would also make driving safer and faster.

The amount of time it takes to drive from Toronto to Vancouver with little to no traffic would be 41 hours of driving. If there was a cross country high speed railway that time could be cut down to less than 10 hours using the fastest German trains.

The upkeep costs for rail compared to that of highways are also much lower, and with bringing less cars into a city, it would need less subsidized parking lots which don't pay real estate tax, nor do they make room for businesses or housing.

Life On The 401

Life On The 401

I’d spent my adult life thus far doing my best to avoid driving on the highway. If I had to go somewhere that was beyond my city limits, I was either getting a ride from a parent/friend/boyfriend/coworker or I was taking public transit. I did not want to drive. I did not like to drive. And I barely had the means to drive anyway as my brother and I share an old car, and he was already taking it to…

Tractor-trailers pile up on the 401 in the snow; The eastbound lanes of Highway 401 are blocked by trucks and tractor-trailers that jackknifed and crashed into each other

pf session tonight joy and laughing for the first time in eons vs stress bc I have to drive to work for the next 3 weeks and haven't really done that since I once again failed the advanced permanent test in June and have sorta just sworn off this whole thing out of anxiety and self loathing vs bg3 release week is upon us and I have a long weekend to play it vs I have been SO desperately sad and empty lately ????

#franposting #it is too much I'm going to bed #but that also means tmrw gets here sooner #and work is just. been bad lately. and now we're adding extra stress via my commute #like driving doesnt even shave THAT much time off bc the 401 is so bad #and the ttc sucks but at least i can zone out and not fear for my life #i would legit rather drive downtown than on the 401 #fuck highway driving #i need to move to an apt on the subway line so i can have a reasonable commute and also not have to drive #my intermediate license expires in a year and the absolute terror of having to try the highway test again #this is a stupid system and i want to kms over it! i am a safe good regular driver #the city highways are actively hostile to human life and i dont want to use them why do i have to prove my skills on them #i need to stop im gonna work myself into a frenzy again #LITERALLY WHY IS ONTARIO LIKE THIS AND NOWHERE ELSE #stupid multi tiered driving system

I may speed when I drive but I do it safely. None of that weaving in and out of traffic and if I’m stuck behind someone, I wait until it is a) safe and b) legal to pass them. but fuck, don’t be going 100kph in the left PASSING lane when the regular traffic is going the same speed. THAT is what causes highway congestion.

#look i sound like an angry driver but really i just get frustrated when people aren't following COMMON SENSE #i use my turn signal EVERY time i go into the passing lane and out of it #but the 401 highway in ontario is the fucking wild west of MORONS who just cruise in the far left lane for shits and gigs

Ontario Highway 401, the busiest highway in North America, was closed during the 2008 Toronto Propane Explosion. In this rare photograph, only one vehicle is seen driving on its typically crowded collector express system.
