and try being a pedestrian in any of those countries..

It's not speeding. It's jus tthe way the drive - climbing curbs to get by, insane lane changes, driving in opposite lane, etc etc. And those scooters are just death. We had a 5 series BMW as a rental, and navigating through those scooters was fucking stressful in that tank. Some of them seemed to WANT to kill themselves.

hahah, I used to have trouble adjusting my "pedestrian" mentality from Canadian to Polish whenever I went back home. Finally I just started to think here like I would over there. Pedestrians right-of-way my ass

Canadian drivers wouldn't last 5 minutes on the streets in Europe.

think here like they think there which is roads are for cars and sidewalks are for people. Therefor when you enter a road that doest have a sidewalk (crosswalk) then you should get the hell out of the way of cars.

pretty simple really but toronto pedestrians seem to lack common sense in that department

as for driving.. yeah thats a huge adjustment because if u make one wrong move you are toast.
