    SB 294 near the 290 interchange on a Saturday afternoon. Surreal.

    All major cities are the same right now. Toronto area, rush hour has all but vanished.

    I’ve seen news in the Toronto area of a huge spike in ppl being caught at 50kmh over the limit. In Ontario, that’s instant license suspension. Car impounded. Huge fine. You’re now shoelace express. One doctor got caught doing 160 on the QEW. Had to call a cab. Lol

    It is weird out there now. Did a pickup at a Georgia Pacific Plant. Place reminded me of Omega Man. Followed the lawn signs around back of this huge plant. Found two cars parked at the warehouse. Otherwise it was desolate.
    Usually you'll see a security guard's car. Or maybe custodians. But nothing.
