Heh, I was also going to mention Sweden, they have relatively strict rules, but people are friendly and polite also..Lets you pass if you flash your high beams, always thank you and things like that..
Sorry to hear about your accident, good thing only the company car got hurt and not you..

Re: Accident!!!!

Annoying in Florida are drivers that think there is a speed limit driving the on ramp to enter I-4. They seem to think 45 is the fastest they should go, and 55 when they get on the road when everyone on I-4 is doing 75+.

Re: Accident!!!!

nailzer - You should come to S. Florida. Nothing but a melting put of the world's crappiest drivers = hatiatians w/o DL / latins that drive like they're getting chased by the police / New Yorkers that think they're driving in downtown NYC / elderly people that just shouldn't be on the road anymore. Regular, safe drivers are definately in the minority.
