Btw you can do it also in Germany more or less.

I believe it's possible also in France .

Edit: don't want to insult anyone, I was just curious, nothing else.

    Yes, those are countries, not single states within a country. Different things.

    edit: ya'll are acting so fucking weird in this comment thread. Jesus Christ I don't even give a shit about the size of America or the US/EU pissing contest, I was merely and correctly pointing out the non-equivalence of the items being compared. Holy shit get a fucking life if you give two shits about the topic itself, goddamn. The hate boner some of you have for one country or another to the point of spite downvoting and intentionally misinterpreting shit is fucking ridiculous.

    Yep, I cannot comprehend how there is so much space allocated to so few people and they still drown in one fucking housing crisis after another.

    If you are going to gobble up that much space for yourselves on this planet that we all share, stop fucking around and put it to good use!

    The housing crisis has zero to do with available space, except that in the hubs of industry, like silicon valley, there are more people wanting to live there than there's space. That's not true across the country.

    But no one is going to build a house in the middle of nowhere to help with housing because (a) hardly anyone wants to live in the middle of nowhere, away from all the jobs, and (b) the people building housing are motivated to get as much money as they can.

    We as a society could 100% solve the housing crisis, but it involves socialism, not capitalism, which a lot of Americans still have a problem with. The solution isn't constrained by space, which the US has tons of.

    Here in the UK I could spend 13 hours on the M25 and would have only gone four junctions. The American mind cannot comprehend this.

    All these guys are posting crossing their whole country, but as Texas is one state, it's fair to say that's the same as a province.

    Shared route From Windsor, Ontario to Kenora, Ontario via ON-401 E.

    23 hr 6 min (2,190 km) For the best route in current traffic visit https://maps.app.goo.gl/Jmm9TmKVu79bTANq5

    Staying only within Ontario, Canada it takes almost one full day of literally non stop driving.

    You cannot drive 13 hours from Texas and still be in Texas. In order to drive from someplace you have to leave there.

    You can drive 13 hours through Texas. That’s possible.

    Google maps don't let me zoom out to show entire route.

    EDIT: you can drive in Russia without leaving it for 161 hours:
