    As a regular driver of the 401, if half of the people would just slow down a bit it wouldn't be so ******* up. Too much ignorance and impatience.

    they are all a bunck of impatient ##### in and around the GTA, If you are not doing 30, or 40 kms over the speed limit on the 401 you are going to almost get run over, everybody seems to drive right up on the ### of the guy in front of him in the GTA, they all drive like a bunch of a-holes.

    well sneaky schneider did a dang good job of getting outta the way, altho he cut the van driver off, i think it woulda been a whole lot worse if he had gotten hit....

    I came down that 401 in the rain with a set of emptys when CF closed,
    That was a white knuckle run if you ask me.
    I could only do 57 mph and they were buzzing me like jet fighters. all i could was hold my line and look as far ahead as the pouring rain would let me

    the article said the driver wuz ok and being charged with wreckless driving altho he blames weather conditions. btw that wuz some crash. as yall said lucky fer the other drivers, it could have been worse if it wuz just a grassy median. pumpkin, the van and the vid car would have been pulverized for sure.

    According to the story, some lady was killed when she exited her vehicle. :( Wonder if it was one of those two cars that ended up in the median? Might be more charges showing up on this one. Sad...
