There MANY reckless drivers here in Central Florida MANY. But as an alert defensive driver it’s not just the vehicles that are a threat- people walking and cycling do NOT obey any signs or laws, I never see them ticketed, and they can appear out of NOWHERE- no matter how alert and careful a driver you are. It seems they have a death wish- they appear to feel that everyone everywhere will and can stop for them- they cross and ride in places that are not safe to be ALL THE TIME and without looking. Oh for the days of common sense, unselfishness, ‘cross at green not in between’ (or not against the ‘do not walk’) and when cyclists actually obeyed the rules of the road. In meantime no matter how RECKLESS pedestrian and cyclist may be, and no matter how very careful the driver may be, you know who will be charged if something happens. I also notice it’s a rare thing to come upon an intersection that does NOT have an obstructed view.
