When I was a kid, I yearned for the day that I would be able to get behind the wheel and drive a car. Since I've been driving in Miami, my desire to be behind the wheel has diminished with every near-death experience. These are some of the things I've learned that Miami drivers do.
-The person with their left blinker on, will change lanes to the right and vice versa.
-The person in front of you with their blinker may or may not turn.. Usually they do not turn.
-The driver next to you will get over even if there is absolutely no space for them to do so.
-Most drivers with children in the car, do the most dangerous things.
-There will always be a driver that will speed up to get in front of you, then drive full slow once they do so.
-Stop signs and red lights mean nothing.
-A person on the cell phone will almost always cut you off because when they merge, they can't see you over their phone.
-If you honk at someone, they will honk back. Especially if they were in the wrong.
-If you put on your blinker, the person next to you will speed up so that you can't get over.
-When you are late, everyone will drive under the speed limit.
-There's always that car that's doing 30 MPH on I-95.
-You will experience many times that you visualize yourself getting out of the car and choking the person in the car in front of you.
-People in right turn only lanes will always wait until the last minute to go over. Of course they didn't see the the huge arrow on the ground nor did they see the sign that tells them they could only go right.
-When you are trying to cross more than 2 lanes there will always be one car going too fast or too slow to prevent you from doing so.
-People will run you off the road just to jump from behind a bus. The same bus you saw and decided it was best to not get into that lane.
-You will see people weaving in and out of lanes because they are text messaging. I've even seen this on I-95.
-At night, a lot of idiots use their high beams. They do so even in well-lit areas of the city.
-Old people are very dangerous behind the wheel.
-I do not like stereotypes but several Asians have made me really believe they can't drive.
-There is always some driver in front of you who thinks they're Mother Teresa and will let every single car over.
-When there is construction in one lane, a jerk will always ride all the way up and get mad when no one wants to let them over.
-People in SUVs think they can do whatever they want.
-The person with the most piece of shit car will drive it as if they own the streets.
