PS: Don't do 50 over on the Canadian roads, your vehicle will be siezed on site and you face up to a $10 000 fine. Seriously.

My car couldn't do 50 over if you dropped it out of a C-130....

Just remember, he's talking km/h. Lots of roads are 80km/h limits (50 mph). 50 over is only 130 km/h, and even a 1.6 na can beat that. Lots of roads have lower limits.......... The big 4 lane roads are limited to 100 km/h which is about 62 mph.

they won't extradite us for speeding will they haha. so canadians are more humorous than americans... that excites me

Keep in mind that Ontario's mto (ministry of transport) has reciprocity on tickets with most American states. That means that if you get a ticket up here, chances are your local state will know about it, and will collect it for Ontario if you choose not to pay it. Same goes for us when we go south.........

Well aware, thanks much. Will take a bit adjusting to km/h and not mph. Have to teach myself to read the inner numbers on my speedometer.

Did drive my F-250 from Winnpeg to Toronto on the TCH. Wished for better mileage, but a beautiful ride nonetheless, and no tickets.

Wanna do it next year all the way across to Surrey/Vancouver and make a left towards Washington. Can you camp along the TCH? Looked like you could in many places...

Stay well.

oh haha that still doesn't mean much, if i get a ticket in another state i don't have to pay it then they just put out a warrant for me, and after 2 years that goes away.

Guess we won't be seeing you there Trev0rbr :lol:

I used to live on the TCH, pretty sure you can camp on it as long as your vehicle is off the road

That won't work for us up here. If the ticket doesn't get paid, they won't renew driver's license or vehicle plates.

Sounds good, my friend. Leaving for Texas on Tues for a week, have a job related test on the 21st, and heading up north. If I enjoy camping (and can handle it...lol) I will do it along the TCH.

Stay well.
