America's Worst Drivers [by city]
No. 1 Miami
Spending too much time checking their hair in the rearview mirror? These Floridians ranked near the top for their good looks, fashion savvy, and cocktail scene. But all that eye candy can get distracting. Locals didn’t impress voters with their street smarts: Miami ranked as the city with the worst drivers.
Please note I said tougher, not dumber.
Case in point - I once gave a ride home to a colleague who lived on the south shore from an IBM site just north of the city. It was rush hour, but traffic was still moving at a pretty scary speed. A guy in a rusty looking VW beetle gets cut off by another in one of those big old chevy Impalas. Between the Boston Garden on ramp and the rte 3 cut-off in Quincy, the beetle caught up with and hit the Impala in the driver's door more than 30 times. The piece de resistance was when the VW guy realized there was a mass trooper back behind the glut of cars we were part of desperately trying to follow the whole crazy scene (NOBODY RUBBERNECKS LIKE IN BOSTON) and took one final shot causing the Impala to turn sideways on the SE Expressway blocking the entire southbound side and then driving like a bat out of hell.
The Impala sat there blocking traffic and I could hear people over the that 'Wah Wah Let met through' cop siren shouting "That was fuckin wicked".
Yeah, compare that to fixing one's hair.

In miami, the beetle would have hit him once and then had his ass shot off. I have literally seen gunfire over someone turning left too slowly.
