"Puerto Rico isn't actually Orlando. Do you have numbers for Orlando?"

Yes, this is true... Puerto Rico isnt the same place as Orlando. But there sure is a lot of similarities! And being that PR has such a high hit and run rate, it doesnt suprise me that Orlando is so bad driving... in all aspects.

"I'm not sure why you'd trust the police in Fulton County any more than you'd trust the police in Dade. (We're talking about state, county, and local police.)"


HAHAHA!!! Dade Co is one of the most corrupt, money hungry, and sketchy places, maybe other than New Orleans.

Michael Putney had an excellent commentary on this on his sunday morning show today. As terrible as this story was it will hopefully be the springboard for the community to take advantage and demand change. Not just reckless driving but the mess in the courts.

There are so many of these incidents, I'm not sure how the Court System even keeps up.

Last night while driving home I heard a George Carlin comedy bit on the radio. He was joking about how he doesn't stop when he runs someone over with his car. Maybe a month ago I would have laughed but instead I just found it really tasteless. I'm also surprised the radio station (105.9) would play it considering the recent incidents in South Florida.
