A Canadian sports betting site says Dallas drivers have a very high likelihood of experiencing winter traffic delays.
A study from people who know about driving in the snow say that making your way through the Dallas-area isn't all that easy in January.? Canadians do, that’s who. That’s why we take it very seriously when a Canadian source, even one dedicated to sports betting, says that some North Texas cities are pretty bad at dealing with winter traffic delays.
that has brought consecutive days of below-freezing temperatures and dangerous road conditions across much of the region. Many Dallas-area residents didn’t have to brave the outdoor conditions over the weekend or today, even, but still, many others did. Hopefully, those who have had to drive over the past few days haven’t had to drive much in Dallas or Plano. North Texas may not be a winter wonderland, but for a few short days each year,According to CSB’s calculations, Plano is the No. 7 worst city for winter road delays, thanks to a 51.29% probability of delay. Data Center Energy Demands Could Give The Grid An Unwelcome Test This Winter When describing Plano’s plight, the study says “suburban sprawl and commuter-dependent roads combine with slick January streets, keeping drivers alert for accidents that can slow traffic to a crawl.” Only to be outdone by a small bit, Dallas is listed at No. 10 with a 49.62% probability of winter road delays. Less than 50%. Not bad, Big D. “Expansive road networks, heavy commuter traffic, and high accident risk mean icy or rainy January roads require careful, slow navigation,” the CSB report noted when highlighting Dallas delays. The results were determined by CSB evaluating 110 cities across Canada and the U.S. to identify where drivers are likely to encounter delays during the winter, “measuring expected January road disruption across three factors: weather, traffic congestion, and traffic accidents.” Interestingly, all the top 10 cities for winter road delays are from warm-weather locales. Austin and Houston ranked higher than Plano did, for example, with California cities featuring prominently. Los Angeles tops the list with a frightening 66.67% probability of facing traffic delays. That much makes sense, though, as those of us unaccustomed to shoveling snow from our driveways to get to work simply aren’t used to navigating the icy stuff. “The sheer grind of California and Texas traffic means that even without intense winter weather, cities in these states dominate the top 10,” the study said. As we mentioned earlier, Canadians know how to handle winter traffic. So what does CSB say about avoiding trouble? . He’s held the position since November 2022.
