Plus most of fla is all transplanted new yorkers anyway

Drives me crazy...

1. Nobody really changes lanes...they just kind of drift all over the place.

2. Left lane is for "well we are going to be on the expressway\parkway\highway for more than 2 miles so we''ll just stay here in the left lane.

3. Gotta tailgate or else someone is going to squeeze in and make matter worse

4. Solid white line? Aint that no different than a any other line. Just means you can use HOV lane as a passing lane.

5. Right of way means whoever leans in closest to steering wheel gets to go first.

6. It is mandatory that all cab\livery drivers ride the brake on the highway. rules state that brake light must flash at least once every 15 seconds.

7. Cell phone law really means "Use right ear...not left ear".

A little while back out on Sunrise highway around Exit 54, I'm doing a little under 60mph in the right lane. Guy in the left lane is doing bout the same and is sloooooooowly passing me. Hes about 2 car lengths back and closing

Some asshole in a Trailblazer pulls up behind me and starts flashing to pass.
In the right fucking lane.
I can see in the rear view that he mouthing "Come on!!" and motioning with his hand for me to move up.

In the right lane on a 4 lane highway with me travelling 3-5 mph over the speed limit.

I immediately set my cruise control.

Once it turned to a 6 lane he flies across to the far left lane to pass the guy in the now middle lane and then proceeds to cut back in...all pissy like.

What a tool, yesterday I was on the southern state in nassau and am in the middle lane, not much traffic and a guy buzzes me on the right side, I look back in my rearview and see nothing in the left lane and am thinking why pass me on the right

Yep............To change lanes with authority is too much work for some people. Instead, they'd rather take 30 seconds to complete the lane change.

I call it the "molasses draft"

Black men do it a lot, I've noticed.

They're coming up behind you, and from 10 car lengths back they start drifting to the other lane. Several seconds later, their front bumper almost makes contact with your rear bumper.

Perhaps it's because they're sitting so low, "wit a gansta lean", that they can't see the corners of their car?

Or maybe it's their way of expressing "dominance" over you.

"Ha ha, I just 'drafted' you with inches to spare, therefore I owned you."

Dunno.

its the opposite around here, stay in th eleft lane untill the last second, then shoot over 2, 3, or 4 lanes of traffic to get off the hwy
