I have driven on some of these roads, they are right.


The 10 most dangerous winter driving spots in Canada​

The report breaks it down with the "hotspot" segments of roads and corridors that see the most crashes across Canada during the winter. Here's the full list:

  1. Erieau Road — Erieau Peninsula lakeshore (ON)
  2. Trans-Canada Highway — Rogers Pass and Yoho National Park (BC)
  3. Trans-Canada Highway — Banff–Lake Louise (AB/BC border)
  4. Yellowhead Highway — Jasper–Hinton corridor (AB)
  5. Yellowhead Highway — McBride–Tête Jaune Cache (BC)
  6. Highway 17 — Kenora–Dryden (ON)
  7. Highway 11 — Hearst–Kapuskasing (ON)
  8. Queen Elizabeth Way — Burlington Skyway (ON)
  9. Highway 401 — Mississauga 401/403/410 interchange zone (ON)
  10. Highway 401 Express/Collectors — Toronto core (ON)
 
I'm surprised that 3 or 103 between Halifax, NS and Lunenburg, NS especially in the Chester area were not mentioned. Nothing like the ice covered Maritimes in the winter. Highway 1 along the Bay of Fundy in New Brunswick was no picnic either.
 
Portage la Prairie -> Winnipeg on the #1 in any kind of blizzard conditions can get insane. So open and flat, just complete white-outs for like 8-10 seconds at a time during inclement weather.

Never seen a road actually closed by the RCMP due to hazardous conditions so many times. Used to drive it daily.
