Don't drink and drive folks.

That idiot's at nearly twice the legal limit, and he's not even 21! [editline]13th April 2014[/editline] [QUOTE=SexualShark;44539143]its true, people in tampa drive like fucking lunatics. st pete is full of god damn canadians who drive slow and old people.[/QUOTE] Canadians would drive slow because we work in Metric and your roadsigns are in Imperial, so they're probably still going 65 on the highway, just not in MPH.
[QUOTE=Abrown516;44539078]Don't drink and drive folks.[/QUOTE] Only retards drink and drive.
Reminds me of the classic "Hey hon, I hear on the radio there's a car driving the wrong way down the freeway!" "One? There's hundreds!"
[QUOTE=SexualShark;44539143]its true, people in tampa drive like fucking lunatics. st pete is full of god damn canadians who drive slow and old people.[/QUOTE] I can vouch for this I live in St.Pete it's fucking terrible.

The amount of old people is astounding. [editline]14th April 2014[/editline] That aside, I'd still rather live there than here in boring-ass rural central Illinois.
Florida has the most consistent bad news out of all the 50 states. The US should just really cut it off.
[QUOTE=RainbowPillows;44539485]I can vouch for this I live in St.Pete it's fucking terrible.[/QUOTE] can also vouch for this, I have to make an hour commute from st. pete, through tampa, to lakeland. it kills the man daily
[QUOTE=Rammaster;44541321]Florida has the most consistent bad news out of all the 50 states. The US should just really cut it off.[/QUOTE] Every time I wake up in Florida and turn on the news: Death, missing, death, missing, politics, some good news, death.
[QUOTE=Rammaster;44541321]Florida has the most consistent bad news out of all the 50 states. The US should just really cut it off.[/QUOTE] Just give it to Canada, there's more of us there than you guys anyway.

I was at clearwater on saturday, so many bad drivers holy fuck... On Sr60 the speed limit was 60 and people were going 70 until I hit cars on the road going 45... That's right there was a fuckhead in each lane going 45 and that bridge went on for like 5 miles. On the way back from tampa going I275 and I4 going out of tampa, no turn signals were used. Also the common occurence of being tailed at 80mph and then passed at 90 just for the guy to slow down to 70 in the lane next to you and then repeat x number of times.
Yeah, Florida can be pretty bad. [QUOTE=Siminov;44544538]I was at clearwater on saturday, so many bad drivers holy fuck...

[QUOTE=JDK721;44545864]Yeah, Florida can be pretty bad. Are you referring to the Courtney Campbell Causeway?[/QUOTE] Yep :v:
Oh yeah, no one uses turn signals over in Brandon. Fucking trashcans...
[QUOTE=Siminov;44546799]Yep :v:[/QUOTE] The worst part about that bridge is how people just sit in the left lane the entire time for 10+ miles. It leads to road rage and also causes people to pass them on the right.

[QUOTE=SexualShark;44539143]its true, people in tampa drive like fucking lunatics. st pete is full of god damn canadians who drive slow and old people.[/QUOTE] I loathe having to drive within 20 miles of Clearwater in the winter, because that's when all the snowbirds migrate from their natural habitats in Canada/Michigan to Florida in order to perform their mating ritual - driving at 30mph in the fast lane in a 3 ton SUV.

[QUOTE=geesey goos;44547058]media trend[/QUOTE] Tell me about it, we make the news over the absolute stupidest shit... Someone gets attacked by a bear locally and it makes statewide news, someone gets shot and it makes national news, the local media is a joke. Sorry for going sorta OT
Fuck, my dad's taking me to Florida this summer. :(
I lived in Port Charlotte/Punta Gorda and it wasn't THAT bad.

[QUOTE=Davey;44546968]Oh yeah, no one uses turn signals over in Brandon. Fucking trashcans...[/QUOTE] Whenever I hear people complain about traffic in Tampa, I think to myself "well there's rush hour but any populated urban area would get slow rush hour traffic" and then I remember Brandon.
