Dear Editor:
Although this letter is in regards to a highway outside our town, I also believe it pertains to many other roads in Anytown, Ontario.
We had the joy of trying to go over to Kitchener on Highway 7 on two separate days last week. Both going over, and coming home, we couldn’t help notice that the speed limit was only 80km/h and on each occasion there was someone leading the pack that was driving about 65km/h.
This of course, led to a line of cars a mile long trying to get down the highway, and of course, with no where to pass. I know they have been talking for years about widening Highway 7, but in the meantime, perhaps they should increase the speed limit to 100km/h and then, maybe, the ones who own a vehicle with gas pedal issues, might do an actual 80, and help get the flow going!
Mike Wenga,
