      First 37 years were in Florida then moved to Washington state. No truer words have been spoke other than the left lane and those two states. And Washington they’re also afraid to go when the light turns damn green.

    As a true Floridian, I legit just nodded and said "yep" after each point was made. 😂 I don't worry about alligators because I assume every body of water has them and I keep a distance. Also a tourist received a tornado warning notification&asked me what should they do. I told them just ignore it. Happens all the time. And finally...I don't drive in the furthest left lane because the cops are waiting to pull people over. That's life as a Floridian. Aw... good times.

  • @PapaDon850
    @PapaDon850 Год назад +21

    The left lane is for the rabbits. If your pushing 90 mph and someone is a mile back gaining on you, get in the right lane and pass the baton! True Floridians, chase the rabbits with plenty of space to signal your along for the run. Take turns on point and checking Waze and knowing when to slow your roll. Always show respect (✌🏼) to your fellow rabbit when he peels off at his exit. 😂

      @iamonearies21 Год назад

      Do California drive slower than the posted speed limit. Like the speech limit can say 45mph and they're driving 40mph maybe even 35mph. Because they drive like that here in Las Vegas,NV. The speed limit could be 45mph and they driving 40 or under on the streets. Everyone drives 50mph or 55pmh on the streets. If traffic is slower then that I know a Californian is up ahead. On the expressway out everyone drives fast it don't matter where they're from. But you do get doesn't lost people driving slow
