Since I have moved to FL I have heard more beeping then I have ever. Also people turn right from the straight lane and will make a left turn on a red arrow. I never saw this in MI or CA even. In CA they have camera lights though so that could be why. I do think that places like CA or FL that have many lanes of traffic each way and more people in general on the roads will have more problems obviously. When I lived in MI and NJ they have many every day roads that just have 2 lanes each way so it limits the merging and confusion.

I wish NJ had 4 - 5 lines on each way on road because it's better, and less traffic.

...or one of the following cars:

- Honda Accord
- Infiniti
- Nissan Altima
- Ford Mustang
- Ford F150
- Dodge Ram
- Volkswagen Golf


YouTube - Ride It Like a Ford

Drivers here are disgusting.....and this video (from a commercial aired back in 2005) typifies them well.

Please tell me that the commercial above was not aired. If it does, it appeals to the S FL demographic, but other than that, I cant imagine seeing that commercial in any other place, although Orlando and Tampa are on their way.

I cant stand that same monotonous raggeton beat; it's so tired.

PS - you forgot the Toyota Scion SC.
