    In a message dated 8/23/99 10:18:17 AM Eastern Daylight Time,
     writes:

    << I've lived in Florida for nearly 20 years. I fear the snowbirds! Like the
     guy who died of a heart attack behind the wheel... but whose car didn't have
     the sense to stop, and so plowed into the back of a car at a stoplight.
     There were no survivors.

    People can become incapacitated while driving anywhere but it is true there
    are more elderly drivers in some parts of Florida, such as the St. Pete area.

    My email was about Miami. Many of the drivers there are not elderly but
    young, overly aggressive folks, combining high speed with erratic course
    changes. The nightly news almost always has a story of some horrific wreck.
