    Don’t forget we also measure distance by travel time. I have to Google the KM distance from Ottawa to Toronto but I know it’s around 4 hours and 20 minutes traffic allowing.

      yep, driving somewhere is almost always expressed as a unit of time. Only time I check distances is planning a trip with the trailer to get an idea of when to stop for gas, especially going up north.

      Not to mention if we say miles, we almost always mean kilometres.
