Isn't there usually some sort of speed enforcement zone on the 401 just past the signs with the speeding fines in that area?

between Cornwall and Belleville it's pretty fast.

But is most of your driving on the weekend, when all the city folk are out on the road
Different driving on the hiway during the work day and outside of July & August

There is LESS traffic during the days than on weekends from what I can tell.  Very unlike Toronto.

I usually go from Kitchener to Toronto or Mississauga once a week and the pack is mostly traveling at 120-125 until traffic gets too tight.  It's an appropriate speed in my opinion in good weather.
