However, it's the main road to the Sheriffs office and airport so gotta be careful there isn't one way down the road passing by lol. Here in Punta Gorda it gets very busy especially in season, but the south part of town there is a lot less traffic because it isn't built up so you can get on it more.


I can imagine if one lived in Sebring, or like Clewiston or Moore Haven, the rural areas you could have a lot of fun with the SS.
