This may be a good compromise.   Its p[retty direct.   You shoudl get 
Ingo to meet you in Flint, and go from here.   Its pretty straight across 
through Port Huron, to London, and then to Buffalo.   Done it many times.

Kinda boring.   The only reasonable route is the 401, which is 
featureless in that stretch.

Tickets earned in Ontario _WILL_ travel to your Michigan license.   BTDT.

Tickets earned in New York will not travel to your Michigan license if 
you pay the fine in a timely manner.   BTDT too.  :-)
