Oh I've been on busy roads like the Magnificent Mile in Chicago and even it's manageable compared to some major thoroughfares in Winnipeg

It always seems like peak traffic during daylight hours in the south end of the city. When a large portion of the driving population is forced to use few and far between arterial roads, the number of automobiles piles up. There are some major roads, such as annoying Osborne Street, that I refuse to drive though unless it's 2-5 am.

Oh, don't you worry. When I get my new videocamera this Christmas, I'll make some time lapse video blogs while driving and post them on YouTube so you can see for yourselves!
