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.

Well tough if you ain't buying it because it's true. North of the Miami-Dade co. line, all from up north, south of the Miami-Dade co. line, Caribbean and South America. And you people think people up north drive crazy and like s#!t?!
Live in the Caribbean or South American and you'll know what driving crazy and like s#!t really is!!!!!! Three years in a row Miami drivers have been voted the rudest, nastiest and craziest drivers in the U.S. Worse then New York, worse then L.A., worse then anywhere else. I lived in Mexico City if you want to know what driving like s#!t really is with 25 million of your closest friends on the street with you.
All with sticks, where no speed laws are respected and observed, one way just means when no one is coming down the street and the cops can be bought to get out of a ticket. Not to mention how many roads are still to this day in bad shape from the big one in '85. You cannot own a 'vette unless you live in the highest northern part of the city or else you won't have it for very long at all, if you live long enough to see it taken from you at the light. If you're lucky they'll just take the car and not you with it for ransom.
Only place worse to drive in the world, maybe Rome, Italy. 2K year old streets were just not made for cars!
Well, real cars anyway.
