If you are travelling on 401 during peak hours you might have notices such heading. They are mostly wrong and misleading.
This morning I saw a board "Express Moving Well Collector Moving Very Slow" beyond next transfer. Though I knew it could be wrong (as usual) I thought to give it a chance. I chose Express and you know what? Collector was moving at a double speed than the Express.
May be there is a delayed co-ordination between the staff who is entering such information and the staff who is defining what is Well, Slow and Very Slow.
Your experiences?

GG, be a contrarian!
If 401 express is moving well, everybody would go there. Then how the poor thing could 'move well'?

For those not in Toronto, "Moving Well" is a very relative term

You are sooooo right ..... doing 60 km on the 401 in the day time is known as moving well ..... the GTA desperatley needs another highway .... or ..... needs to expand the alternative ones.

Perhaps you'd be interested to know that there are guidelines in this regard:
'Moving well' represents a speed of 75 km/hr or more, and this speed is typically detected by sensors in the road.

This may sound funny but I always use reverse psychology when i drive on the 401.
If you think that the 401 express is moving faster, then always change to collectors...And so far, it has always worked for me...
Also if you notice that the lane beside u is moving faster, u change your lane to the faster lane...And just when you change the lane, it stops moving and the one you switched from starts moving...
Lesson learnt: Always use reverse psychology!!!
