My life in your hands

It is no wonder it costs the city plenty for emergency medical response teams. Every day there is an accident on Interstate 4. Why? People drive too fast.

Despite the 60 mph posted speed limit, people are bobbing and weaving at 80 and 90 mph. We need more police to patrol the I-4 corridor between McIntosh Road and I-75. Our lives are at stake.

I come from Washington state. We don't have the accidents that Floridians do. Why? We have plenty of police to patrol the freeways, and people darn well know they need to slow their vehicles down, or they will be stopped.

Driving in Florida is taking your life into your hands.

There is blatant disregard for speed limits and no police to ticket the morons who think nothing of taking other people's lives into their hands.
