What The Honk: A little tape should do the trick

Trooper Steve discerns the improper from the inconsiderate

ORLANDO, Fla. – Everything we do in the traffic department has a purpose. Honks may be funny, but the endgame here is to make them all go away.

Golf carts are a recent topic, heck we even did a patrol on them. This is not golf cart parking and a vehicle with an actual disabled placard would have the right to this parking space.

There is even a sign indicating the fine. Then, that other one is in the loading zone. Not a fan…

Do they make eyepatches for cars? (Copyright 2023 by WKMG ClickOrlando - All rights reserved.)

We all will have a moment where something is wrong with our car. That doesn’t mean someone won’t take a picture of it and send it to me.

Now, I am not sure how serious the tape is or if it’s just to be funny. Either way, a little scary with an unsecure hood and a missing headlight, might need that.

So much for crossing double yellow lines, how about riding them? (Copyright 2023 by WKMG ClickOrlando - All rights reserved.)

That’s the smallest travel lane I have ever seen.

Obviously, I am joking and drawing your attention to the double yellow lines. Yeah, that would be a no passing zone and designated as a travel lane separator. It’s actions like this that lead to road rage, crashes and tickets.
