Like Kansas we have no helmet laws for motorcycles... and some fools opt to not wear one. this is your head in a helmet skidding down a road at 40 MPH.. this is your head on the road after 40 MPH... any questions?
I have to laugh at those that opt to block roads as they wait for red lights as if 20 ft makes a difference. and looking straight ahead doesn't mean we don't see you and your rudeness....ah well life in the fast lane...lol

I LOVE living in Florida so I am not bashing it on everything but the thing that always jumps out at me is the number of crosses I see on the road. I guess I am too sensetive but everytime I see one, it tugs at my heart. No matter who that person was, someone is hurting because of their death and more then likely that death is because of stupid driving. Seems rather pointless too me.

I remember the roads in Boston being rather aggressive and frankly from what I remember there was NEVER a good time. Even when I would fly out of Boston on a 7am flight on a Sunday morning, the roads would be packed while I was saying "why aren't you people at home in bed?"

Grow up people! Accidents happen, not just in Florida but everywhere!
Taxes are everywhere,not just in Florida but everywhere!
Crimes Happen,not just in Florida but everywhere!
You guys need some new material.

Highly agree, considering half the people that move to Florida always seem to be comming from "New York", then they complain about our driving. Check yourself northeners because 2006-2007 studies show that 48% of crashes in Central Florida come from out of state residents or, Vast Majority of Northern States!

You must be a very compassionate person, GOD Bless you. I too cringe when I see those even before we had to put one up where my Brother was killed by a Drunk driver after getting off duty in Baltimore, it was a week after 911 and we were both City Firefighters and worked together in the same firehouse, I relieved him that night and little did I know that would be the last time we would ever see each other again. It is a pain that you live with that never fully goes away. I hope that no one ( unforunately some will ) one has to feel what we live with now.God Bless
