How to measure things like a Canadian?
Saw this recently on a WAN Show (19:12). How true is this? It sounds wild.

I find everyone uses time for long distances. I know it’s a 13 hour drive to Edmonton but damned if I know how many kilometres it is.
75 0 ReplyI always convert using 100km/h. So a 13 hour drive is probably North of 1250km.
That being said I only measure distance in time as well.
15 0 Reply100km/h is a good estimator, because you're probably going 120km/h most of the way but you need to account for toilet breaks and lunch.

My car tracks my average speed for some reason, and I believe it's based on engine hours vs. distance. After 2½ years and ~70,000km it's stayed pretty consistent at about 60km/h.
My driving is probably 90% highway by distance, or 60% by time.

Yep, I can tell you Toronto is 17 hours away and the QC border is 7, but I have no clue how many KM those are.
