  1. January's EV charging stats.

    1361 km, $138.96

    Biggest cost was DC fast charging between Edmonton and Calgary for the Fellowship of the Rings performances I sang in at the Southern Alberta Jubilee.

    All said, I spent about $39 less driving the Ioniq 5 than I would have my old ICE car.

    Finitely:
    2016 Accord Coupe: $0.13/km
    2022 Ioniq 5: $0.10/km

    Note that these numbers are all on winter tires and the average temp of January was -7.9C, but the heavy driving was much colder.

  2. Be careful out there this morning, #yeg. It's a literal skating rink after the freezing rain.

  3. It's not just 31 deaths, it's countless injuries that could have been deaths, it's countless near misses. Something's gotta give.

  4. Looks like we're going to stay about 0c tonight, so commutes shouldn't be too horrific in the morning after all this rain.

    Either way, glad I won't have to be anywhere until noon.

  6. Something going on with police all over the place on Jasper and 119 st. Jasper ave is closed at 119 st and all traffic being re-routed.

    The main event seems to be on 119 st, south of Jasper about halfway down the block, though they just put up a tent over a car that is in the intersection of Jasper and 119.

  7. I'd really like to know what the hell was going on in this driver's head yesterday afternoon and how exactly they earned a driver's license?

  8. Found out downtown Edmonton, you simply must have a smart phone and credit card to pay for parking. Had to drive to an old pillar to pay by credit card as the app had bad cert. #YEGtraffic

  9. Hey #yeg? Did we all forget how to drive in the snow in the last five days?

  10. Yellowhead EB at Henday in the west end is apparently shut down due to a jackknifed semi.

    Again, they are NOT kidding about that wind!

  11. I don't know who needs to hear this but when there's a foot of snow you're not going to get to where you're going fast. I don't care if you have AWD/4WD.

    These systems let you take off fast, but ultimately, we're all stuck with 4 tires braking at the same time. Slow the fuck down.

    Flooring it at an intersection is doing no good. You're creating ice and making the intersection worse. Feather that throttle like it's your girlfriend.

    Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk.

  12. Woman hurt in crash involving recliner that fell out of truck on Yellowhead Trail dies. #yeg #yegtraffic

    The driver FLED after witnessing the collision that they caused. There's a special place in hell for people like that....

  13. Two #yegtraffic rants:
    I’d really like it if people could turn down their high beams in the city.

    Stop double parking in the bike lanes on 121 Street north of Brewery District.

    Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk.

  14. I spotted my first #Tesla #Canyonero #Wankpanzer in Gold color near St. Albert Trail today. I also lol'ed (not self identified as a woman). Bet I won't see it again when Winter is here. #yeg #yegwx #yegtraffic
