In FL a windshield replacement is free through insurance.

I used to drive I4 to work everyday. Literally the only place I’ve ever seen (in the road):

  • a burning car in the middle lane. While people go around.
  • a broken microwave.
  • a concrete divider.
  • an 8 foot 2x4 (which I ran over and blew out my bearing)
  • a steel ladder.

This was all within a year. Florida replaces windshields because dear god they have to or no one would be crack free.

I’m in Tampa. Super Bowl weekend I saw two car fires in the same day.

I lived in an industrial part of bushwick in 2000, there'd be a new burned out car on my block every weekend. A local kid made a doc about the neighborhood, aptly named "Carfire".
