    You forgot to mention the idiots that run the left and center lanes with their 4 way flashers on 40 mph below the speed limit when ever it rains. I've never seen people do this so horribly as they do in Fla.

    If your going to have your 4 ways on and be that slow,... then for the love of God and everything peaceful on this planet,.. get over in the right lane or just pull the (Bleep) over if you are that afraid. Maybe buy some better wipers,. I dunno.

    The problem with traffic in Fla is that people bring all of their bad habits from other states to Fla. They come there to get away from the cold and then piss and moan about the humidity and heat.

    Every year it gets worse and worse. Any given weekend,.. steer clear of Denny's, Ihop, or any place with a buffet,.. Flea markets, Malls, Swap meets, strip malls loaded with medical offices. Your patience and mental well being will be tested to its limits.

    So many snow birds in Fla this time of year that no matter where you go there will be a 1 hour+ wait to be seated if you want to go out for dinner. I moved out to a rural area thinking I could get away from them. Nah,.. I guess they had the same idea. I should have searched for an area free of travel trailer 'resorts'.

    The truck had driver and forward cameras, the footage showed that the driver was cutoff but the driver was also using his phone at the same time. Fhp issued the driver a 500 dollar ticket for using cell phone while driving.
