The Excitement of Fortnite Season Six Hampers Traffic in Canada
The start of the new season in Fortnite is an exciting time for fans of the popular battle royale game. Thousands of children in Canada were so enthralled with the release of Fortnite season six that it was difficult to get them out of the house and to school on time.
This morning, the York Regional Police had to issue a warning to parents about speeding because of the delays caused by Fortnite season six.
The York Regional Police urged drivers to exercise patience on the roads due to the release of Fortnite season six causing difficulty in getting kids out of the house on time. They requested drivers not to speed if they were running late.
While Fortnite’s immense popularity is well-known, it may seem strange for a police department to address traffic delays caused by a video game. However, the York Regional Police serves over 1.1 million residents in Ontario, Canada, and it is uncertain how many of these residents play Fortnite.

Regardless, Fortnite should not be a reason for traffic delays. However, the game has been cited as a contributing factor in over four percent of divorce cases handled by the UK-based divorce service Divorce Online this year, proving that anything is possible.
Regardless of the excitement surrounding a video game, it is crucial not to endanger lives by driving recklessly.
