Thread Name: BS: Canadian Drivers vs U.S. Drivers
Subject: RE: BS: Canadian Drivers vs U.S. Drivers
Eastern Canada drivers are way more civil, cautious, and relaxed than rural Ontario drivers, based on 4 trips east in recent years.

Rural Ontario drivers are way more civil, cautious, and relaxed than urban Ontario drivers, based on scores of trips around Ontario from Ottawa to Toronto to London to Owen Sound, the near north, the Bruce, etc, on all types of highways.

I don't see US drivers anywhere but in Canada because I never go to the Excited States, but there sure are a lot of them who like to pass me up and down highway 21, and I virtually never have to pass them. As for safety, well, I'm still alive and accident free.

The worst Canadian driving I've seen (and drivers by extension I suppose) has been in Montreal, though regular 401 through Toronto drivers aren't getting any better. Sorry if that includes you.

Peace, Mooh.
