What's the deal with speeding on 30-A?

[organicmama]

After becoming responsible for 3 small people, I slowed down. I was a lead foot, but that was long before moving down here. I usually stay right around the speed limit, give or take 5 mph. I'm not perfect, by any means but try to stay responsible.

It was the high acceleration of these cars as they were passing me that actually was shocking, not the passing in itself.

No, it is a very simple plate - it has the red letters DMV at the bottom and a stripe of blue stars along the left side.

I don't see the plate you describe, in Florida's extensive collection http://www.orlandosentinel.com/ente...-floridaplates-gallery,0,7717613.photogallery

Me either - I saw it 2x in the last week on different vehicles (both of which were atrocious drivers) and I am thinking it is a government plate or something?

why did you let that murano in front of you?

because I was trying to watch the road, the cars in front of me, AND shoot a video!

The first guy in the white truck (Okaloosa plates), had just passed me and was waiting to pass the other car in front of me. What is difficult to see in the video is that in front of the 5 or six vehicles, is a big front-end loader, followed by a truck with a flashing yellow light, and he was still going the speed limit. I'd like to run drivers like the ones passing, into the ditch, before they kill an innocent person who decides to come out of a drive way, turning right.

I think it's a Veterans plate, the attached website has every plate ever produced in Florida.

Yes, it's the 5th one!

Neither of the appalling drivers I saw appeared to be disabled in any way, unless reckless and unsafe driving is now considered a disability.

Darlene will be so pleased to see that these are not "tourists", just IDIOTIC locals.
