Online Mapping Slowing Canada/US Traffic
Why is the Lewiston-Queenston bridge so busy and slow and nearby ones have no waiting and no lines? NITTEC Executive Director Tom George thinks it has to do with online mapping.
We call that the 'Google Phenomenon' because they will take that map from Mapquest or Google and follow it it doesn't matter how long they have to sit when directly adjacent to them is another facility where they can drive directly across the border. People go ahead and follow that right into that bridge even though there's other bridges with 0 or 30 minutes or less.
