About this time of year, the roads in Florida become clogged with Snowbirds. This is usually the result.

 

 


If you live in Florida, you know that the roads become clogged with what we affectionately call "snowbirds" this time of year.

Now I'm not refering to actual birds, but rather the droves of retirees that flock to our state during the cold months up north. Making the traffic situation even worse is the fact that these "snowbirds" have nothing to do but go shopping, visit sights, or go to medical appointments.

You can usually see them on I-4, during rush hour, driving anout 45 mph in the fast lane while you're trying to make it to work on time. Yesterday I took pictures of what has become common to rush hour during my commute in my new Challenger.
