Discover New Brunswick at 200 mph

This afternoon I traversed the province of New Brunswick via the Trans Canada Highway. It's been twenty years since I drove out here, and some noteworthy improvements have been made. Firstly, the entire route is now four lanes. Secondly, the east and west roadways have such a generous buffer between them, often you can't even see the oncoming traffic. Makes for a more relaxing drive. Finally, police presence is much lighter than it used to be. Must have been defunded. Thank you BLM! As a bonus, there is very little traffic. I was able to cruise from border to border at 140 kph plus, and at times found the Rav tooling along quite comfortably at over 160. New Brunswick is the ideal place to visit if you want to explore the true capabilities of that 200 mph supercar you've been thinking about spending the kids' inheritance on. Not only have New Brunswick taxpayers provided a track worthy of a modern day Mille Miglia, the scenery is second to none, lodgings are plentiful and reasonably priced, and if you weary of local sea-food, all the usual US chains are well represented. Highly recommended!
