I feel your frustration. One time I had to travel just four miles on I-4. Well, as soon as I got onto I-4, an accident happened. A trip that should've taken 7 minutes to reach my exit ended up taking about 2 hours. Never travel in Florida without a couple of bottles of water in your car, and carrying snacks isn't a bad idea either, but make sure it's something that can stay in your car without melting.
The I-4 interchange in Tampa is notorious.
