GP `Dave, that's a Awesome Pic : ) WoW
The news networks have some great shot's of the take `off,
but it's not the same as being there.
Kinda like watch'in a race on TV vs being there.
It's doesn't last long & there is a lot of anticipation for it to blast `off
(kinda like xex)
but, it sure is a awesome experience &
it's `free.
With all the problems facing our World, it's great to have
this deversion to escape & dream about what really is out there : )

Florida Takes No. 1 For Road Rage Problems

[/align]
UPDATED: July 2007
[align=center][/align]

The federal government estimates there were 12,000 injuries on Florida highways caused by road rage.
[align=center][/align]

Those numbers also show that no state sees more road rage problems than Florida, WESH 2 News reported.
[align=center][/align]

Road rage was the trigger of the latest shooting during a traffic altercation on Interstate 4, a fight between two drivers in Seminole County on Friday and An angry cat-and-mouse car chase through two counties that ended in the fatal shooting of a 5-year-old girl in Sumter County in 2003.
[align=center][/align]

Government figures show a growing trend. Twenty years ago, road rage was a barely used term, now it's listed by the federal government as an official cause of fatal crashes.
[align=center][/align]

That crash data shows it has become an increasing problem on our highways.
[align=center][/align]

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, since 1990 road rage or aggressive driving has jumping 51 percent now causing 66 percent of all traffic fatalities.
[align=center][/align]

The government's numbers show that during aggressive driving incidents, 37 percent involved the use of a gun. Twenty-eight percent involved another weapon such as a bat, brick, board or knife.
[align=center][/align]

In the remaining 35 percent, drivers used their cars as weapons.
[align=center][/align]

The chances of getting involved in an attack are still hard to chart. The federal government said it can make a direct link to road rage as the cause of death in 218 deaths.
[align=center][/align]

Florida's Highway Patrol said your best defense is completely under your control. Don't lose your temper. Let an aggressive driver pass even if it means pulling over, and never leave your vehicle to confront someone.
[align=center][/align]

The federal government's statistics show Florida is one of the worst states in the country for road rage.
[align=center][/align]

In 2005, there were 25 fatal crashes directly linked by police to road rage, and 39 people out of 70 people nationwide died in those crashes.
[align=center][/align]

The next highest state for road rage is New York.
