Imagine the tourists and out of town folk who aren't familiar with the road.

It's a funny place to drive though. Kind of like Mulholland Drive in LA, where you have a huge difference between the local residents who have been driving those roads for years, and the tourists who just want to see the views. I was doing 35mph on Mulholland a few weeks ago, and was being tailgated by a Bentley GT. The speed limit is 25mph, btw. Same goes for the S2S. What's worse is when you're driving behind someone in the single lane and the minute it splits into two lanes, they hit the throttle. Fuking Albertans..... But I digress.



Lion's Bay is also one of the wealthiest postal codes in the country. Lots of powerful people call Lion's Bay home, and if that speed limit isn't an indication of the 1% taking advantage of their place in life, then I don't know what is.




This is where I disagree with you. Peak hours, sure. The S2S is a shitshow.
But I've had so many nice 8pm drives to the condo, where I set my adaptive cruise to 100kmh, and simply focus on the curves. It's a beautiful highway, ruined by driver's lack of skill, confidence, or an abundance of ego.

Yes I agree during the Peak hours. But the speed traps i've seen all throughout the day.
