The 401 is the busiest freeway in North America, with 431900 cars using parts of it everyday. It's also the longest freeway in Ontario, stretching from Windsor to the Quebec border near Cornwall (close to 825 km). Watch as we navigate through Canada's biggest city, Toronto, on the 401. We start at exit 328, just before the 407 in Milton, and end just before the east end of Oshawa. Enjoy! :)

Highway 401 Westbound - Highway 403 to Highway 402


Timelapse driving on Highway 401 between Highway 403 and 402 during a winter afternoon. It is one of the busiest sections of rural freeway in the world. This section of the 401 handles a huge amount of truck traffic (Highway 401 is the world's busiest truck route) as all traffic between the US Midwest and the Golden Horseshoe (Toronto, Hamilton and Niagara Falls) is funneled through this stretch. It was also one of the first sections of Highway 401 to be six-laned outside of the Toronto Region. It was done around 1990 by turning the former cloverleaf interchanges into diamonds, allowing it to be widened while keeping the existing overpasses. (The weave lanes became through lanes.)

With 4 lanes, grass median and gravel shoulders, this is how the 401 looked from when it was first built until the 1990's when it was widened to 6 lanes. This segment is between Hwy 97 and Hwy 8. Both these highways have significantly changed since then too.

semi-truck crash on Highway 401


From ctvtoronto.ca: Police say it's a wonder nobody was seriously injured in a spectacular crash on Highway 401 near Guelph Friday morning, which was captured in extraordinary detail on video. The video shows a large semi-truck veer into oncoming traffic before smashing through the 401's concrete barrier. The crash occurred around 8 am near Guelph Line. The truck had been hauling around 30 tonnes of sand before it violently jackknifed and swerved across the highway's eastbound lanes. Driver Matthew Krizsan shot the crash on video and managed to swerve out of the way as the truck violently lurched over the median. "Everything seemed to slow down and I think all those years playing video games as a kid paid-off," he said in a phone interview. The truck driver in the case, 48-year-old Bahadar Bassi of Brampton, has been charged with careless driving.

Highway 401 Eastbound, London, Ontario


This video shows Highway 401, the busiest highway in North America, eastbound through London, Ontario, a city with about 400000 people. The majority of the route in the city is rural as the highway bypasses the urban area to the south. This video also shows the partial interchange with Highway 402, an important junction for long distance travelers. Forgive the bumpy parts, this was the first time I filmed on the road. The thing you see in the windshield reflection is a leg for the camera tripod... sorry it's there but again this was my first time doing this. The video starts west of Highway 4 and ends at the Veterans Memorial Parkway interchange (the video response). The video was taken by a Sony HX5V camera and has been sped up 3x to keep it interesting. Hope you enjoy it! Follow me on Twitter! twitter.com

Google Earth- The Busiest Highway In North America


This video depicts hwy 401 through Toronto Ontario Canada on Google Earth. Although the highway travels 816.6km from Windsor to Montreal, Toronto is the busiest section of the highway as it is the only toll free road traveling east to west across a city of 2.5million plus another 5 million in the GTA region. At a maximum lane width of 24 (12 lanes per direction) It is one of the worlds widest roads with many large fascinating interchanges. This 50 kilometer stretch of highway nearly sees an average of 500000 vehicles per day making it "The Busiest Highway in North America" If not the world. The Highway is divided into Express and Collector Lanes meant to keep traffic moving Express- Holds all the incoming traffic into the region and is for drivers who travel long distances before exiting the freeway as there is limited times to exit. Collectors- Holds all of the feeder traffic which is for drivers that travel short distances where exit access is always an option. If you have not traveled on the section of the highway before, the song in the video is a clear warning for inexperienced drivers who intent to now drive on it.

Highway of Heroes


Taken from a Durham Regional Police officer's perspective, this video follows the last journey from Trenton to Toronto in Canada on Highway 401, also known as the Highway of Heroes. When a fallen soldier returns home from Afghanistan, Canadians line bridge after bridge along the 100km (62 miles) journey from Trenton to Toronto in a show of compassion for the soldiers who give their lives overseas and the families who have lost their loved ones. Videos from: Highway of Heroes www.youtube.com www.youtube.com The Highway of Heroes - Toronto EMS www.youtube.com www.youtube.com Toronto EMS could not have said it better: "These are among the ones willing to pay the ultimate sacrifice for your Safety, your Freedom, our Canada!

Driving from Toronto to Burlington on Highways 401, 427, and QEW


Distance: 72 km / 45 miles Time: June 2010 Camera: Sony HDR-CX300 Source Format: AVCHD, 1920x1080/60i, 24 mbps Editing Software: Corel VideoStudio Pro X3 Music: Sunlounger - Lost This is a drive from northern Toronto (North York) to Burlington, a city of about 170000 people. Things to note along the way: - Steeles Avenue West: officially the northern border where Toronto meets the City of Vaughan. The street was recently repaved and is now in great condition. - Dufferin Street: a major north-south street. It seamlessly turns into Allen Road (an expressway, see next) further south, but "restarts" a little to the west of Allen Road and continues all the way to downtown Toronto. - Allen Road (south): an expressway that brings traffic into mid-town Toronto. Following the last traffic light before the on-ramp to Highway 401, it continues as a freeway before terminating at Eglinton Avenue West. The University-Spadina branch of the subway also runs in its centre. (This section was traveled several times before in my videos, so it must be getting old by now ;)). - Highway 401 (west): once again, we take this gigantic freeway, this time to the west. We drive from the collectors onto the express lanes all the way to Highway 427. - Highway 427 (south): this is a short but also very wide freeway that connects the Toronto international airport, Highway 401, and the Gardiner Expressway/Queen Elizabeth Way. It also has a collector/express system. It used to be a concrete freeway, but <b>...</b>

Snowy Drive on Highway 402 and 401, London, Ontario


Driving on Highway 402 and 401 eastbound on Friday, December 3. This marked the first noticeable snowfall in the area and continued into Saturday. By Sunday, massive snow squalls occurred and dumped about 100cm on the City of London between Sunday and Tuesday. Another 20-40cm is forecasted to fall by the end of Wednesday. On Sunday, Highway 401 westbound was closed in the London area due to multiple collisions and rollovers. It opened late Monday but both highways 401 and 402 continue to be very slow going. On Tuesday, the city came extremely close to declaring a state of emergency. Schools and public transit have been canceled for 3 days straight (Monday-Wednesday) and non-essential government services have been closed. Many public businesses closed up shop too as the city came to a standstill. London has asked surrounding cities for help. The video shows just how suddenly changes to the weather can occur here. At the end of the video my camera tripod fell off the dashboard as I navigated a curve because it wasn't well secured. I didn't crash lol.

Canadian Repatriation Ceremony / Highway of Heroes Canada


Repatriation Ceremony at CFB Trenton - A Soldier Returns Home. In 2010, I was producing a video The Highway Of Heroes Canada www.youtube.com I had made a few trips to the Pickering/Oshawa area overpasses to obtain footage of the procession along the 401 of our fallen soldiers returning home. On one occasion, I was permitted on the tarmac in Trenton to shoot video of the entire repatriation ceremony - from the plane arriving, to the motorcade leaving CFB Trenton. Producing this video has been a very sad yet moving experience. While there have been clips of various repatriation ceremonies shown on news and online, for this Remembrance Day, I'd like to share my footage of an entire ceremony. This video was shot in May of 2010 it was repatriation ceremony for Private Kevin Thomas McKay killed May 13, 2010 when an improvised explosive device detonated during a dismounted night patrol in the Panjwayi district, approximately 15 kilometres southwest of Kandahar City, at 8:00 pm Kandahar time.
