Sarnia : Truck drivers crossing the Sarnia border into the U.S. and back to Canada are facing significant delays during peak hours, with wait times sometimes stretching up to three hours. Complaints have surfaced that some drivers are misusing the Fast Lane to bypass the long queues, frustrating those who wait patiently in line.
The issue has been ongoing for weeks, with many truckers reportedly exploiting the Fast Lane, even on weekends when it is not operational, to cut ahead of others. When entering Canada from the U.S., drivers using the Fast Lane can access any booth, a loophole that some are taking advantage of to skip the queue.
Critics argue that this practice makes honest drivers who follow the rules appear foolish. Suggestions to address the issue include placing a cone to redirect Fast Lane traffic before the booths to prevent misuse. There is a growing demand for stricter measures against drivers who exploit the Fast Lane and for authorities to take action to curb this trend.
