[QUOTE="Black 03 Z06, post: 136056, member: 1852"] Barrie, Ontario and surrounding areas are commuter cities and towns with folks heading to and from Toronto. Highway 400 between Toronto and Barrie is a very well used road. There used to be a "rush" hour on the roads surrounding Toronto but it seems that "rush" hour is now twenty four seven. Incredibly congested road and with construction and reduced speed limits those restricted areas. It can be a bit intimidating to drive that road. Not really sure if you are driving with the flow or rather just being ushered along with the masses. When you toss into the mix the occasional aggressive driver the whole picture changes. Sometimes wonder if Corvettes can be like a magnet for them. Heading north yesterday the traffic was very heavy but moving at 120 to 140 depending on which lane you tried to stay in. Several times drivers would creep up or accelerate to just sit on my bumper even though I was in the middle lane and passing the cars on the inside lane. They seemed content to just sit there even when opportunities to move to the passing lane presented themselves. Why? Who knows but there is not much you can do to shake these low performance drivers in traffic that heavy. It is not uncommon to go from 140 to zero for no apparent reason on this road so having someone sitting right on your bumper is well, unerving. I just am not used to this anymore living in the country where a traffic jam is two cars every five minutes so. Stay alert folks they are out there. The crazies are waiting.:( [/QUOTE]
