Or you steal it from the rig tanks.

Can't really do that, I wish though.. Cardlock diesel is about 75 cents/liter but its full of sulphur which is bad for newer diesels.. They eliminated it almost completely from the fuel to reduce sulphur dioxide in the air.

It's not really that amazing when you take into account that no two exits on Deerfoot are the same. When you combine that with drivers who are new to the road it can freak people out if they are trying to stay with the speed of traffic and find the exit to take to their new job.

^^ I find that the roads in Calgary are poorly marked in terms of road/traffic signs. Theres many instances of confusing signs or lack of signs; I find that exits are some of the worst areas for this.

Ive lived in Toronto and Montreal and the traffic and drivers are awful as well but the roads are better marked. You can get on the freeway and be confident you will see signs telling you which lane you need to be in to get to where you want to go and which lanes end and how far a certain exit is. As well you find signs updating you on the flow of traffic ahead and suggesting alternate routes if needed.

If you drive the Deerfoot daily, youll be familiar with it. If you never go to that side of the city, the Deerfoot can be a nightmare even for a confident experienced driver.
