Never experienced as rude of driver's as in SW Florida!

I'm spending a lot of time in Palm Beach county on Atlantic side, and occassionally go to Ft Lauderdale or Miami airports. Drivers here are much worse in my opinion than when I travel to Ft Myers or other areas along Gulf Coast. There are a lot of drivers who don't read English, don't know the rules, and even when they do, they don't think it applies to them.
The other day I took my dad to a doctor's appointment, and I had an SOB give me an angry horn "preemptively". First time I've ever seen or heard such a thing. Apparently he was warning me in advance that he expected me to move quickly once the light turned green -- this while light was still red. Freaking incredible.
And sure enough, once we turned left at intersection he passed me on right side doing at least twice the speed limit.
