The roads are dangerous, but fun. They twist, and like to taunt you with their blind curves and near-constant construction work, leaving entire sections of the highway in rubble. As an added bonus, there's the sport of Motorized Dodge Ball, required of all drivers across the northwestern Ontario Region. The basic premise of the game is this: you drive, and wild animals will try to hurl themselves at your car. You dodge, lest they hit. A lot like that elementary school game we all used to play, no? This particular stretch of road was responsible for a fatal moose crash which shut down the highway for an entire afternoon. (And yup, it's another photo of the Trans-Canada.)
