I moved here from Mass three years ago, and I gotta tell ya I have never seen drivers like the people down here in my life. People in Mass drive crazy and fast, but not reckless like here. Running red lights is a way of life here, changing lanes to get ten feet ahead, stopping at lights and leaving fifteen feet between you and the car in front of you and the worst, slowing down for a yellow light and not knowing if the person behind you is planning to slow down also. I find it especially funny the way pedestrians are more like targets here than people who have the right of way. I know, I know natives here are going to say it's the non-Floridians, but I'm not buying it, drivers here have to be the worst in the nation. Drivers education should be mandatory in this state, and I don't mean online driving courses. Just my .02.
