A manatee. They are hard to spot in the water, and a motorboat driving over it can injure or kill the manatee if the blades are moving fast enough. Because manatees are threatened, Florida laws typically require boats to drive slower in rivers and coastal areas to protect the manatees, should you drive over one with a motorboat.
“And if you look to your left, you can see a manatee grazing near the shore, or as we like to call them, Florida speed bumps… Yeah, I know it’s a dark joke”

Orange Park is a town in Clay County, Florida, United States, and a suburb of Jacksonville. The population was 8,412 at the 2010 census. The name "Orange Park" is additionally applied to a wider area of northern Clay County outside the town limits, covering such communities as Fleming Island, Lakeside, and Bellair-Meadowbrook Terrace.The town's name reflects the hope of its founders for a fruit-growing industry, but their crops were destroyed in the Great Freeze of 1894–95. Despite recovery elsewhere, the crops never came back to Orange Park.HistoryOrange Park in the late 18th century was known simply as Laurel Grove. The name Laurel Grove comes from Sarah and William Pengree who received a land grant from the Spanish governor. Laurel Grove was sold to Zephaniah Kingsley of the Kingsley Plantation upon William's death. Zephaniah developed Laurel Grove into a model farming plantation for over 10 years. In 1813 General Matthews invaded East Florida triggering the Patriots Rebellion. After Mathews left East Florida Zephaniah's wife Anna Madgigine Jai Kingsley burned down Laurel Grove to keep it out of Patriots hands.The Town of Orange Park was founded in 1877 by the Florida Winter Home and Improvement Company. Following the Civil War, the company purchased several thousand acres of the McIntosh plantation at Laurel Grove, for the purpose of creating a southern retreat and small farming community.

A FLORIDA Turn, is an abrupt, erratic, or otherwise unpredictable drastic change in direction, often involving multiple lane changes (with or without a signal) in order to ensure you don't miss your exit. After all, a true FLORIDA driver is always the only one on the road ( or at least, the only one that matters to them).
Kyle was driving down the highway in the left lane. All of a sudden he noticed his exit quickly passing him by, so he made a FLORIDA Turn
