A new study has identified Florida drivers as the most annoying. Among U.S. cities, Miami ranked highest for having the worst drivers. The legal firm Lemon Law Experts ranked the city 98.50 out of 100 on their “driver annoyance index,” which roughly translates to 86 percent of residents rating drivers 7 out of 10 for extreme annoyance. A not-so-close second was Las Vegas. Survey respondents said what differentiated Miami drivers was increased aggressive and rude behavior, including tailgating, changing lanes without signaling, and failing to yield to merging traffic, among other “annoying” behaviors. It’s not just Miami or any of the other top cities in the survey; there’s been a national increase in these types of behaviors. Based on the previous report, there has been a nationwide 67 percent increase in cutting off other vehicles and a 47 percent increase in honking out of anger since 2016.
