Back in the 80's, they used to talk about how many people were shooting other people on the highways in LA. They have been doing that in south Florida for almost 40 years now. Here's a few tips about driving there. When you are sitting at a stop light and the light turns green, DO NOT GO!!!! There will be at least 3 more cars go through the intersection. However, if you don't go the instant the light turns, there will be at least one idiot who blows his horn. Also, if you are driving along and the light ahead turns yellow and you actually stop for it, prepare to get rear ended. That goes for Miami, Ft Lauderdale, West Palm Beach, etc... And that's just the driving. Walking into a store in Miami is like walking onto a set for Scarface. You never know who's gonna start shooting or when. I wouldn't live anywhere south of Orlando again. I just don't feel safe there anymore. And Orlando isn't much better.
Best thing I can say is, good luck.
