Highway 401 was the scene of Canada'* largest pile up
Carnage Alley
The section of Highway 401 between Windsor and London has become known as "Carnage Alley", particularly since 1988, when a long string of particularly violent and deadly accidents occurred in this section. These accidents have occurred because of the road'* narrow lanes and very narrow grass median, which has proven to be insufficient in preventing cross-directional collisions.
Highway 401 has also been the site of Canada'* deadliest automobile pile-up: an 87-vehicle pile-up just east of the Manning Road interchange and truck inspection center. In response, the freeway is being given a massive upgrade. For more on this, read below.
