The Volusia County Sheriff’s Office says a 2-year-old girl was hit by a car after running into a traffic lane on the beach about 4:30 p.m. Saturday in New Smyrna Beach, Florida.

How is there a traffic lane on the beach? Who did this? How does this happen?

Lol, it's a thing apparently, a "Florida tradition".

Imagine looking at the beach & thinking 'yeah, needs more cars' ...

Yeah but what else are you supposed to do? Walk?

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@thelemmy.club 4 points 1 day ago

And just carry all the guns & gators??

Needs a car minimum, pickup truck preferably.
