After driving over 2 million miles in the eastern 37 states my opinion is that Florida has the worst drivers in the country, and that is the cause of most accidents. I think it is the natives. Generations of poor drivers teaching the next generation how to be a poor driver. No turn signals, improper lane use, and tail gaiting are rampant. Most people don't even understand that they are doing anything wrong. Enforcement of laws is minimal and I was told by a Sheriff that over 85% of accidents are rear end collisions.
I agree, the cars I see in Fl are no worse nor better than NH.
