Yes I passed and are you still considering renting a vehicle?
I hope you are landing in Toronto and driving on the 401 :rofl:

Biggest issue in BC is thye amount of people that run through red lights... strangely 4 way stops seem to work but lights are ignored!

Re: Differences between Canadian drivers and UK drivers?
 

When stoned it can take a while to notice if things change, hence confusion on the slowly but forever changing pretty lights above the road.
The stop sign, no change...

Just reiterate that of i2c and her special mate, drinking and driving and hitting pedestrians is common. This is a crossing I make often when popping down to GI and I have seen many people simply run through the red light. This is not an isolated case.

And I agree with Alan2005, driving anywhere in Canada is a soulless, grey and dispiriting experience.

Yes....Halifax.....and I have no idea but I get your sarcasm non the less! Cheers!:p

Re: Differences between Canadian drivers and UK drivers?
 

Halifax is a doddle. Only becomes an issue when following tourists on their way to Peggys Cove. Try driving over the 2 bridges into Halifax but have change handy.

When you are the only car on a twisty back country lane, surely its entirely up to the driver how soulless, grey and dispiriting the experience is:confused:

Re: Differences between Canadian drivers and UK drivers?
 

Just like the Mersey tunnels....joy of joys! Hopefully the NS bridges will be much prettier, not smell as bad or full of scousers!

Re: Differences between Canadian drivers and UK drivers?
 

Kids are allowed to drive way too young here. Sitting at the traffic lights and seeing 14 year old CHILD in the driver's seat of his big Dad's truck always scares me....bloody crazy :thumbdown:

Re: Differences between Canadian drivers and UK drivers?
 

Really they have twisty back lanes here? :confused:

Re: Differences between Canadian drivers and UK drivers?
 

They are bridges not tunnels :lol: These go over the water not under them.

Re: Differences between Canadian drivers and UK drivers?
 

Ha ha, I meant having to pay to use them!:p

Re: Differences between Canadian drivers and UK drivers?
 

I take the kids down one at break neck speed to school nearly every day...

Re: Differences between Canadian drivers and UK drivers?
 

Besides, Cant be FULL of scousers, half are woolybacks going the other way:p

Chavving it up in the scooby?
