CNKS: But you aren't from Ontario, these guys are nuts, and the mini van drivers try to keep up with them. I was driving from London to Strathroy one evening on the 4 lane. I had an empty tractor trailer, at 70 to 80 kmph 50 mph, if you stepped on accelerater in high gear tractor would spin the tandems. Now that is damn slipery. SUV's and mini vans never laid off that 110 kmph or 70 mph. They are in the ditch everywhere. Kind of reminds you of that old country song of trucking potatoes in northern Maine, " If they burried every trucker lost in them woods, there'd be a tombstone every mile." Interesting part here is these people believe they can't get hurt. The typical Ontarian in a hurry, you see him pull onto highway behind you, he passes you within a mile, then proceeds to make a left hand turn in front of you facing oncoming traffic. Being a two lane raod you have to stop behind him. Guys in a hurry with no where to go.
