Ah, Miami. What can be said about this fabulous city? The food is good, the nightlife is better, the culture is flourishing. There's just something about the city that screams, "we are the greatest!" As a Miami native, I learned everything I needed about life in the streets of Westchester. I've been given the title of "World's Most Okay-est Driver" by my mom, which means I have the right to drive recklessly under any given circumstance.
What really brings out Miami's uniqueness is its variety of drivers and their cars. We have Mercedes and Teslas parked outside of rundown apartments and Aston Martins casually making their way down Calle Ocho. But the drivers here are nothing to mess with. They make their own rules and follow their own traffic patterns.
Miami drivers are the absolute bestdrivers in the world and we've got the statistics to prove it!
Miami drivers keep you guessing.
Miami drivers don't need blinkers- what for? They can't let someone know their next move! These drivers like to keep you guessing.
Miami drivers don't share the road.
If the lane ahead ends in 400 feet, Miami drivers will not let you merge, even if you run out of road! It helps other drivers learn how to drive aggressively.
Miami drivers create their own paths.
See all of those barriers that have been smashed? That's courtesy of Miami drivers. They've cleared the road for new paths and alternate routes to take, so you're welcome.
Miami drivers use their hazards during the rain.
The giant sign that reads, "Hazards Off During Rain" does not phase these seasoned drivers. They know that it's far much safer to leave their hazards on during the rain as to alert other drivers that it is, in fact, raining.
Miami drivers are not insured.
No insurance, no problem! Miami drivers don't believe in car insurance, so after an accident, there's nothing to worry about! No names to be given, no information to be exchanged. Simple and easy!
Miami drivers have their own traffic patterns.
Driving in reverse is all the rage here, which means that these drivers will disrupt the flow of traffic to create a new pattern! Just try to keep up, will you?
Miami drivers don't acknowledge traffic lights.
Red and yellow lights mean nothing when Miami drivers see all lights as green!
Miami drivers drive their own speed limit.
Whether they're driving 10 over or 15 under, Miami drivers have their own speed limits to follow! There is no such thing as too slow or too fast for these amazing drivers.
Miami drivers are the best multitaskers.
Miami drivers can text on their phone, eat some lunch, and pay their bills all while behind the wheel. No need to stop the car for taking care of business.
Miami drivers are the best tailgaters!
And no, not in the game-day party sense. These drivers are really good at riding your rear end and making sure to slam on their brakes dramatically any time you need to slow down.
Miami drivers are fluent in sign language.
All you need to do is watch closely and the world's best drivers will effectively communicate with you through sign language. Watch as they tell you to go screw yourself while simultaneously disrupting traffic. Truly talented drivers.
Miami drivers have the most patience.
These drivers can sit in standstill traffic for hours on end while keeping their cool entirely. Not once will a Miami driver have an outburst for the actions of other drivers while having crawled forward 20 feet in over an hour.
Miami drivers are unofficial Uber drivers.
They do not have the fancy decals, but they surely will stop in the middle of the road to pick up or drop off passengers, unload luggage, or have a conversation with random passerby. They are the kindest individuals and are the most understanding when it comes to driving.
