The best advice I can give to somebody driving through this route would be to use your blinkers and to be very observant of reduced speed signs. During the winter, a lot of snowbirds come down from the North and they drive very erratic and usually at least 10 miles under the speed limit. The people that come down to escape the winter usually don't signal when they change lanes or they move over lanes very erratic so that's the biggest concern for anyone driving through this route. Another instance to be very careful is whenever it is raining. People tend to drive too slow when it rains along this route.

Some of the major dealerships in this area, like Alan Jay for example, have a wide selection. A downside of the major dealerships in this area charge more than other places but they are going to be closer in distance. A person can find some more affordable cars if they are willing to settle for older cars. There are a plethora of authorized dealerships and third party dealerships to choose around the area. Looking online is a good way to go for looking for cheaper cars because of the good sized volume of owners trying to sell their cars.

My favorite memory driving in this city is when they opened up a Five Guys burgers. We don't really have that many places to eat where I live so this was a big deal. When I finally got inside, the entire place was packed. I honestly thought everyone in town was in this small, newly opened franchise. I actually had to wait in line fifteen minutes, which might be short in other places, but this was extremely unusual for my city. When I finally got my order, it was extremely rewarding. This might be a small moment for anyone that lives in a bigger city, but we don't have that much where I live.

US 27. US 27 is my favorite road to drive because it's extremely long and scenic. I don't usually get that much time to listen to music so driving this route is ideal. The beautiful nature that encompasses the roadside is a great compliment to a long drive. There are multiple spots to go camping, hiking, or fishing along this route if you're the active type. The most notable feature is the state parks along this route. They are massive, beautiful, and there is a wide array of activities to enjoy.

If your car over heats easily, don't go out anywhere near lunch hour due to congestion. Also, keep your foot on the break when on the main roadways/highways during the mornings, evenings, and during lunch hours, as the bad traffic makes people aggressively drive in front of you, and speed suddenly to get around you, if you do not go over the speed limit five miles per hour as a courtesy to those behind.

There are a lot of cheap cars on craigslist. There are dealerships here and there, both used and new as well.

Pretty much everything closes at night, so it was less congested at night, so it was less stressful driving at night. Because not much goes on in this city, I enjoyed driving to malls and flea markets the most, of which were hard to get to, though possible, using the bus system, as the bus system takes about literally ten times longer.

South Florida Ave. Staying along South Florida makes it hard to get lost, as it is a highway, and you pretty much have to start there to get to everywhere I went, and the majority of the drive would be on it (partly due to congestion of the traffic).
