quote: Martin McCaffery I say get off 95 and take US 1 or 13/17 or even 301 out of Richmond, much more interesting and more to see.
Not only that, in Florida it's where all the crazy people drive out of the asylum drive. And THOSE people do not understand the speed limit. People there going at 95mph while tailgating AND zooming across lanes willy nilly and without signaling. I drive in NYC -- I don't think I am a wussy driver, in fact I am fairly aggressive, but in Florida, I was a cowering sissy boy. I was driving 5-10 miles over the speed limit and EVERYONE is passing me. I look in the rear view mirror to see cars ZOOMING up to within half a cars length and tail me like that. Incredible.
Stay safe, see the more scenic routes as Martin suggests, and stay the eff of I95. If you think I am exagerating, even the Floridians warned me about taking 95. In all my driving years, I have seen exactly two fatalities where I drove by an accident and saw people actually dead on the ground. In only two weeks in Florida going back and forth from Port St. Lucie and Fort Lauderdale, I saw THREE fatalities, one were I saw a severed leg on the road 20 feet from the rest of the poor soul. I could barely keep driving. That's all the stats I need.
