I can't stand much more than that. The drivers are the worst anywhere.
It's not the heat, it's the stupidity.

The Florida drivers are mostly very poor. Tailgating is a huge problem in Florida. A Lee County Sherriff told me over 90% of the collisions in Florida are rear-end collisions. If you see a driver do something courteous in Florida, chances are they will have out of state plates.
In an effort to avoid saying something that is not politically correct: Keep your uninsured motorist coverage up while driving in Florida. Many of the poor drivers do not have licenses or insurance. Feel free to read between the lines here!
On another note: The Florida Department of Motor Vehicles says that if you work in Florida and stay more than 30 days you are required to change your license and vehicle registration to Florida. If you don't, you are driving without a license and driving an unregisterd vehicle. There used to be an exemption but it is no longer in place. So if you get stopped, the correct answer is: Yes officer, I just got here last week!
