Whoa, I heard on the radio this morning that the TTC went on strike this morning. As in they went to strike just before the morning rush hour.
I was fortunate that I was travelling north as Avenue road was a parking lot for the entire length. That is no hyperbole, the street was packed with cars and backed up back onto the highway. I'm pretty sure most of the other major routes going into town were just as bad.
As I was travelling north on the highway, and noticed a gap in the traffic. I figured that maybe the traffic going south wasn't so bad. That's when I saw the flashing lights and the bright pylons. I also saw a charred minivan on the side of the road. My guess is that the car had caught fire some time before and the authorities had blocked off that part of the highway. That would explain the lack of vehicles, as past the incident, the highway looked like all the other routes going into town: packed.
