I didn't go into Canada at all in December . I found the trips this month to be much better . Construction on I-75 and I-94 in Michigan and the 402 in Ontario no longer causes delays . The I-94 West ramp to I-75 South ramp is closed though . I was a little irritated they didn't post signs regarding that before I passed I-696 . I called Livingston less than 3 hours after faxing my paperwork from the shipper on 2 trips and both times was told to proceed to the border .
I noticed less Canadian truckers speeding and tailgating on I-75 and found out why when I picked up a Canadian trucking magazine in Ontario . Michigan had been cracking down on Canadian truckers . They had put several of the turbaned gentlemen out of service for not being able to adequately speak and understand the English language . As in the U.S. most Canadian truckers are professionals that drive safely but even a small percentage of idiots cause pressure to be brought on all truckers .
