The Bad Drivers of Ontario Thread

Those stats surprised me. I've driven and ridden in both and was not aware that Barrie was considered to be the most dangerous in Ontario. I'm also shocked that Brampton has somehow dropped down to 4th. There is no way I would believe that Toronto is now the safest city in Ontario for drivers. At one time Toronto traffic safety was okay, but that was about 20 years ago.
It's a numbers game, where Toronto is concerned. It has the highest population in the Province and the highest number of exclusive transit users. Ratings are per capita.

In Toronto proper one can live without a car. Walk to neighbouroods, 24 hour transit, high cost of parking when you can find it. The burbs are different.

How many Barrie drivers were trained in Toronto and retain the mind set?

"Trained" is doing some heavy lifting in that post. I find that people learn all that they need in order to pass the test and then promptly ignore what they don't like, the minute they actually hit the road.Many people from more populated regions go out of their cities so that they can take tests in more lenient testing locations.
 
My experience has been that people go to smaller areas, because they can’t get an appointment.
I found Ottawa to be much worse for running stop signs and red lights, having trouble staying in the lines, and unnecessarily driving in the leftmost lanes, than Toronto.
