My car tracks my average speed for some reason, and I believe it’s based on engine hours vs. distance. After 2½ years and ~70,000km it’s stayed pretty consistent at about 60km/h.
My driving is probably 90% highway by distance, or 60% by time.
This is what I came here to say. Even short distances.
Basically, any time you’re describing a trip to a destination, it’s in time, based on the mode of travel. Hell, I even describe our family hikes in time it takes our littles to walk it, then estimate how long it would take an adult.
My kids school is 3 minutes away or an 8 minute adult-pace bike ride. Fucked if I know how many km that is.
I find everyone uses time for long distances. I know it’s a 13 hour drive to Edmonton but damned if I know how many kilometres it is.
I always convert using 100km/h. So a 13 hour drive is probably North of 1250km.
That being said I only measure distance in time as well.
100km/h is a good estimator, because you’re probably going 120km/h most of the way but you need to account for toilet breaks and lunch.
And city driving where you might spend 20 or thirty minutes getting to our from the actual highway.

Yep, I can tell you Toronto is 17 hours away and the QC border is 7, but I have no clue how many KM those are.
You’re from Cape Breton. Final answer
Sorry, try again next week on Where Am I From? Right province, but I’m on the mainland.
Shit. Ok. I’ll be back next week
Damn, I have to tune in next week to get the answer? This show is crazy.
Yeah bro, don’t miss out!
Duplicate posted, I blame Connect.
Oh no! I’m late!
Halifax?
Lmao wasn’t expecting another answer this week. Yep.
I try to be true to my word. Glad I don’t have to come back next week.
