They're scared to change lanes ..one fk up trying to switch lanes= 1 star
They don't know it's passing lane and think "I'm following the law and speed limits"

Worst drivers driving 100km/h on 403 HOV lane
Mississauga still have the worst drivers and worst traffic light system
Mayor successfully made weird citizens

Enjoy all the speeding tickets, gents.

It will be great for your bottom line with increased insurance, and $$$ spent on paying fines.
This conversation has gotten ridiculous. Who goes >140kph on any of the 400 series highways on a regular basis...that is NOT flow of traffic. Flow of traffic is AT MAX, 120kph, with a few outliers doing 130. Anyone that thinks that going 130+ and they are the FLOW OF TRAFFIC is utterly delusional.

200 is safe for German cars only

I wonder if it's safe for subcompact cars to drive 130kph
Once 3 friends and I rented a new Dodge Neon, first generation at the time. We were stopped middle of the night by police on 401 around Kingston area. The police clocked the driver doing 180km/h or 160km/h. Two of friends were at the back sleeping. I was on the passenger seat and didn't feel the car was going faster than 120km/h. Latter the driver confirmed that he was driving at the clocked speed.

The number of times I’ve been doing 115-120kph and some donkey blows by me at 135kph. Only to find myself directly behind them as traffic slows or at an exit waiting to turn.

Speeding 130kph vs 110kph on the 401 between London and Windsor will save you time. Speeding to beat hell in the GTA saves you very little or none at all and exposes you to tickets.

I agree with 401

But 400 and 410 going north is different story

I go 130kps at 410 and i still see cars pass me fast probably 170kps and more

These drivers would be in thier beds at Mayfield while slow cars still at Steeles

I agree. The stretch of 410 through Brampton is a real speedzone, and involves a lot of interchanges (403/401/407) which is why A) There are a lot of accidents, and B) Brampton has the highest auto insurance rates in Canada. THIS IS THE COST OF DRIVING >130kph. Enjoy.

This morning i was driving 90kps at QEW
It was boring

Also, which one of you did this? The driver who caused the accident clearly thought that the HOV was a 'superFast lane' and not a carpooling lane.
This was on the 410 in Brampton, near 407.

It's hard to understand how he lost control of this Audi car (he should've been aware of his surroundings sepcially driving on left lane of 400s highway)

The other driver made a bad decision to hurt someone else
saftey is above everything

What a jerk! The other lanes were fairly clear for him to speed on. This was a clear case of road rage and someone off their meds..
