Lol, no thanks. If I want that I will just go to south Fal. No thanks lol.

Sometimes I get home in a bad mood and after analyzing what's the cause, I notice is the commuting experience and always having idiots who cut me aggressively, drive through the apex and cut me, tailgate me to force me go faster than the speed limit, etc.

I love my job, my family, my life in Miami. The only thing thing I dislike is the fact that we must commute by car and we must deal with the expressway madness.

Months ago an immature girl went through the red light and collided with my vehicle. The little 18 year old fake-blond turd, filled with tattoos all around her body lied to the police officer and since there were no street cameras that recorded the incident, the officer did not give her a ticket and I had to pay my car repair.

Most of the people drive over the speed limit, and civilized people that obey the laws are tailgated and forced to speed up.

I was thinking we should start a picture thread of the chaotic driving scene. Please post pictures (Evidence) and videos if you have any. Let's see who can take a picture or record a clip of rude Miami drivers in action.
This is turning into a real nighmare. The more ppl who comes from countries in where they felt like jailed animals the worst. They have never drove a car in their lives, even worst they can't read signs in English.

Why any American would subject themselves to be around that behavior is beyond me

Yet another in a string of hit-and-run fatalities in Miami Beach. Two on-duty Federal agents were victims of a hit-and-run vehicular homicide in Miami Beach. No, they weren't jaywalking or crossing against the light. They were getting in to a cab and hit by someone DRIVING ON THE SIDEWALK! One dead, the other with a broken leg. This is an absolute outrage and a national embarrassment. If it does not lead to some stepped up enforcement, I don't know what could.

Makes me think there was more to this story... Maybe a planned hit on the federal agents?

I was in Las Vegas last month when that crazy woman drove up on the sidewalk. Seems it happens every 10 years out there. Here you see it several times a year. You can't be surprised by anything that happens on the road.

I moved to Kendall 2 years ago and the first thing I noticed was how many walls have holes in them. (from cars)

Go up and down the streets of Kendall and you'll see a bunch of neighborhood walls, usually near intersections, with holes the shape of a car. SMH lol

Usually, I don't agree with your statements.
And what You say it's been my observation. Under their protected status they simply go crazy at the privileges they have not seen or had. They carry out that behavoiur even at the grocery store, pushing and shoving, with no understanding that there is a line and some order; just as they probably have to do in their country of origin.

English? Crap, if You attempt to address them in the official Language of Florida, they act as if You were a foreigner, idiot speaking some weird dialect.
