...f'king speed up will you ?? ...


not that I expect you to be speeding but don't go like 70km/h in rush hours on the HOV lane, if you are not in a hurry , stay home until after 9 and take all the time you want ...what are these losers thinking... ??

I will assume that you're talking about the HOV on the 404 north, south of Steeles??

Hubby and I were in the 911 last weekend and he was FUMING at all the Hondas going 80-90!!!!

We used the 403 that day, and no one that had no business in the HOV was using it!!!

Yeah..the 404 south HOV lane, this morning, it took me like 25 mins to travel from McCowan to 404 on Major Mac and expecting to fly down to Sheppard, this stupid red old chev was going like 70 all the way created another lane of traffic ...sigh...people are just so not considerate these days...

I agree but then again, better to let them drive in their comfort zone. Accidents 10 times worse then someone going 70. Plus it's pretty damn hard to merge in going 100km/h into lanes that aren't moving.

...ar...then they should have stayed on the regular lanes at the first place if they are not comfortable driving over 70....in fact, don't even get on the HWY if that is the case..

But you would have to slow down anyways when they try to merge in. I admit I get frustrated too sometimes, but being angry every time someone drives 70 will shorten your life by a lot. Especially if you do this everyday

this aint as bad as getting stuck behind people merging at 70kph. now what were they thinking?

[AzN_RiverdaleCI]

maybe beeping the guy or tailgaiting him, or lightly touching his/her bumper will get him/her to go, works for me. Except this one time I beeped an Acura RDX awd turbo and the guy flipped me off and gunned it and omg, yo i need a turbo or supercharger now, that guy went zoom and it took me like 10 seconds to match his speed and catch up to him.

I know how hard it is to merge I have to do that when I exit too, my point is that he was in front of me and we entered the HOV lane together, I had to follow him all the way to where I exit yet he was still on the HOV lane going 70.....

yes , turbo with min. 200 lb torque is fun...

fully agree with the OP's frustration...
users should be comfortable driving at high speeds to use that lane

drivers should have to get a seperate license for hwy use
i wouldn't mind paying for that license (depending on the cost) if it means people on the hwy will actually know how to drive

so true....haha..I don't 'rush' people in front of me more because of common respect, people should know and should be considerate...at least you would expect that in North America...

I call BS. "lightly touching" someone else's bumper at 70km/h would either get you into an accident or dragged out of your car and beaten.

It's approximately $2000-$2500 to get your license in Germany (which allows one to reasonably drive on the autobahn where there are no speed limits). Would you be willing to pay this?
