FLA Needs Tougher Highway Safety Laws
Did you know an average of 100 people are killed every day and 8,500 more are injured on America’s roads? The group, Advocates for Highway and Auto Safety (Advocates) says Florida is not doing enough to keep its citizens safe on the roadways. A new report from Advocates shows Florida was one of 11 states with a low safety rating. Advocates says Florida needs laws to include (see page 41 of report) primary enforcement of seat belt laws (rear), all-rider motorcycle helmet laws, rear facing through age 2 law, booster seat law, ignition locks for all offenders, all-driver text messaging restrictions (without s) and several GDL requirements.
Imagine being on vacation at a hotel or a rental property and learn you are being watched via hidden cameras. Unfortunately, this is an emerging trend for tourists. The laws regarding surveillance vary from state to state or even city to city, and there are no controlling federal laws. In general, local and state laws usually permit landlords, homeowners and property owners to install visible cameras in “public spaces” like driveways, front door, hallways, stairwells, lobbies, but not in private spaces like bedrooms and bathrooms or anywhere else that anyone would reasonably expect privacy.
CNET educates consumers on how to detect these devices and what you should do if you find a hidden camera.
A state-run database that stores real-time insurance data will be debated in this spring’s legislative session. The new bill, if passed, would require the state to establish an on-line verification system by July 1, 2022. The focus is to reduce Florida’s high number of uninsured motorists. Insurance companies would upload weekly status reports of all their customer and police would use the database to check the status of a driver involved in a traffic stop or crash investigation.
Here we go again. Florida is the deadliest state for pedestrians. The report “Dangerous by Design” by Smart Growth America and the National Complete Streets shows that not only is Florida deadliest but nine of the top 20 deadliest cities in the U.S. are here in the Sunshine State. Top cities include Orlando-Kissimmee-Sandford (1), Deltona-Daytona Beach-Ormond Beach (2), Palm Bay-Melbourne-Titusville (3), North Port-Sarasota-Bradenton (4), Lakeland-Winter Haven (5), Jacksonville (6), Cape Coral-Fort Meyers (8), Tampa-St Pete-Clearwater (9) and Miami-Fort Lauderdale-West Palm Beach (14). From 2008 to 2017, drivers in Florida struck and killed 5,433 people walking on its streets.
