      60 miles north is another border crossing with 2 bridges & an under river tunnel. That crossing is favored by truckers for ease of crossing & road connections because of current conditions in Detroit area. This new crossing, point of entrance & vastly upgraded roads & their connections, in Detroit, should relieve some of the aggravation of using Detroit as a POE. Remember too, as there is little " rush hour traffic"( local) in Detroit, as cross nation employment is not premitted, on a large scale.

The result is that height above sea level differs by 270 millimetres (0.89 ft) between the two references.

      Best thing would be to do a little research on the subject. There is a 100yo bridge, RR under river tunnel & a car tunnel at Detroit for border crossings. The bridge is 4 lanes but, can't handle the shipping anymore. The infrastructure surrounding the bridge & tunnels was not keeping up to demand & volume of traffic on both sides of the border. So, the new bridge, complete road systems & customs area were built to alleviate the issues. 60 miles north are 2 large bridges & an under river RR tunnel also. Detroit connects to I-75 & I-94 freeways. The one further north connects to I-94 & I-69 freeways. I-69 is ( on paper) a direct route from Canada to Mexico.

      Not quite connected, but once it is, "Once a physical connection is made over the Detroit River, the bridge is treated as an international crossing by Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) and the US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) resulting in both agencies having a presence on respective bridge sites and all individuals accessing the bridge deck - including construction crews - being subject to the rules and legislation for international crossings." Quote taken from the Gordie Howe Internationl Bridge website.

    • @puirYorick
      @puirYorick 4 месяца назад +1

      It's up to the (Canadian) owners of the bridge to put as many Canadian flags as they feel is necessary on the Canadian side of their bridge. I notice Americans often put flags on nearly everything while Canadians tend to only do that much flag waving during certain holiday celebrations and at the Olympics and other international sports tournaments. Each to their own style. The two main towers have the giant flag of the appropriate country painted near the top IIRC.

    • @michaelanthonyvideos
      @michaelanthonyvideos  4 месяца назад +1

      They didn't ask me for my permission and want to enrich themselves off of footage that they are too lazy to take themselves. All they do is have an AI program put a video together and make money off of it without doing any of the work. That's in bad taste. They removed my watermark without my permission.
      I contact these fly by nighters before I submit a copyright request and ask them to take it down but they are too unethical to do so.
      Actually it may be people from China who don't even speak English or have any respect for our laws and values.
      Either way, I'm not their slave that goes and does all the work so that they can steal it.
      Also, I sell exclusive rights to my videos on stock video sites so it creates confusion for the company who purchased the exclusive rights footage.
