Hi all:

Just curious to see what the responses are.


1) How many km have you driven?

2) What's the highest odometer reading you've ever seen on a vehicle (doesn't have to be yours)?

3) What's the furthest away from Calgary that you've driven (using no other modes of transportation such as airplanes during the same trip)?

4) What's the furthest you've driven in one day?

5) What's the furthest you've driven (using no other modes of travel) to see a sporting event?

6) What's the furthest you've driven to eat at a particular restaurant (having had that restaurant in mind to begin with)?

7) What's the longest regular commute that you've ever had?

8) How many times have you facepalmed while watching "Canada's Worst Driver"?

9) Have you ever been a driving instructor?

10) How many different vehicles have you driven?


OK so maybe some of the questions are random.

Thanks.
