Highways in Canada

^ Wow. The MTO in Ontario would have a heart attack at the sight of that. Traffic turning directly onto a 110km/h road! NEVER!

I sense that these kinds of highway level crossings, which are all over Western Canada, are decently safe at least in most places. It makes me wonder if perhaps Ontario was too overzealous in insisting that the freeway network be completely controlled-access. The 401 is probably simply way too busy except for perhaps the section east of the 416, but on highways like the rural 417 east of Casselman, the 416, or parts of the 402, I wonder if level crossings on minor concession roads could have worked.
