1. Turn signals will give away your next move.
A real Florida driver never uses them. '
2. Under no circumstance should you leave a safe distance between you
and the car in front of you, or the space will be filled in by somebody
else, putting you in an even more dangerous situation.
3. The faster you drive through a red light, the smaller the chance you
have of getting hit.
4. Never, ever come to a complete stop at a stop sign.
No one expects it and it will result in you are rear-ended.
5. Never get in the way of an older car that needs extensive
bodywork, especially someone from Florida or Georgia.
With no- fault insurance the other guy doesn't have the anything to lose.
6. Braking is to be done as hard and late as possible to ensure that
your ABS kicks in, giving a nice, relaxing foot massage as the brake pedal
pulsates. For those of you without ABS, it's a chance to stretch your legs.
7. Never pass on the left when you can pass on the right.
It's a good way to prepare for people entering the highway.
8. Speed limits are arbitrary figures, given only as a suggestion and are
apparently not enforceable in any County during rush hour.
9. Just because you're in the left lane and have no room to speed up
or move over doesn't mean that a Florida driver flashing his high beams
behind you doesn't think he can go faster in your spot.
10. Always slow down and rubberneck when you see an accident or
even someone changing a tire. This is seen as a sign
of respect for the victim.
11. Learn to swerve abruptly. Florida is the home of high-speed
slalom driving.
12. It is traditional in Florida to honk your horn at cars that don't
move the instant the light turns green.
13. Remember that the goal of every Florida driver is to get there
first by whatever means necessary.
14. In Florida, 'flipping someone the bird' (The New Jersey State salute) is considered a polite salute.
This gesture should always be returned.
THANK YOU & HAVE A SAFE JOURNEY

LOL I would add a few:
Never follow behind a Lincoln when all you can see on the drivers side is two hands on the wheel and a tuft of white hair above the seat back. ESPECIALLY if it has New Jersey or New York tags.
If you happen to find yourself driving in the above mentioned states, be sure to drive 20 MPH below the speed limit it the left lane, keeping your turn signal on at all times.
If "U Luv NY"..... Take I-95 N
