    Please add don't stop in the middle of the road to cross three lanes of traffic in order to make a left turn. Just go past the intersection and make a U-turn at the next intersection!

    Cars that are in an accident ARE NOT removed from the road. Prepare accordingly. Make sure you have snacks, games, and a book in the car at at all times just in case you are stuck in traffic for HOURS!

    I lived in Florida for 20 years. 16 years in Broward county(we moved to different cities a lot) and 4 years in Jacksonville. When I lived down south there was a fun Florida driving technique I called a Miami left turn. That was where someone in the right turn lane makes a left cutting off 3 lanes of traffic and 2 left turn lanes. Last time I saw this was at the intersection of Pines Blvd and Flamingo Rd.

  • @rosebud3606

    Why are people on their phones not paying attention and sit through the ENTIRE green light making everybody behind them miss it?! 🚦👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
    What is up with people driving right next to each other in a line across all lanes and all of them are going UNDER the speed limit (I’m lookin’ at you Courtney Campbell Causeway)? 🤬

    Space Coast Floridian here! When the Snow Birds drive crazy, let them go. New Yorkers are vain, New Jerseys push their accent, you cant understand whatever the Massachusetts/ Bostons are saying, so don't waster your time, and the rest of New England thinks we'll draw a gator or throw a slushee or jump out naked so they freeze or flee. If the car has midwest plates, tell them you're going to the bar locals go to and the first round is on you. Works like a charm. Shout Out to The Tiny Tavern in Cocoa Beach!

    I disagree. I have been driving for over 40 years with a perfect driving record. I don’t run yellow lights on an intersection. I don’t give a #@$= if you miss the light. I move into the left lane, before I make a planned left turn, so slow down. I let other drivers comfortably pass, even when they don’t signal. I don’t tailgate. I know how to flow with traffic and time the lights. When I see a car wanting to merge, I maintain the same speed. I respect Trucks, they have a job to do and different rules on the highway. I give all motorcycles plenty of room. I slow down in parking lots. I am aware of my surroundings!
