I can attest to that. At times we might have something that causes and extra 10 maybe 15 minutes at worst. Mostly it's 2-3 minute delays.

Are they keeping the southbound 404-401-DVP like that? Having to fight through the constant flow of entering Sheppard/Fairview traffic, while stuck behind the huge backlog of slow moving cars on the 401 entrance ramps? Unless it's 12am on Mon-Thurs&Sun, that junction is always slow.

I make that trip on a regular basis, and 45 minutes is pretty good. Best case is 1/2 hr by car, in rush hour by car is 1.5 hrs.

Sometimes here in Greenwood, Nova Scotia, when every single person who works at the Air Force base lines up at Tim Hortons on the main drag out base before work in the morning- all with a single person in each car[commuting? we donneed no stinkin' commuting]- the drive can seem like forever, or 15 minutes actually, instead of the usual 8. But man, that extra seven minutes, boy, lemme tell ya. Road rage, man [said with a Jamaican accent like on the Malibu commercial ]
