Of it. I just looked over and there was a guy eating, just putting having a hamburger. Let me give you a look. Heading towards tampa, traffic isnt so bad this way. Heading eastbound its just a little bit more congested. But it doesnt take long when you are on this stretch of road anywhere on i4 to find dangerous and distracted driving. We have been out here all day long, and let mo me show you one of the first things we caught on camera when we got onto i4. You probably already guessed it. Someone chatting on their phone. And thats what most of the people that we talked to today say is the most dangerous. Other things we noticed as well, we were driving the speed limit, 70 miles per hour, but there were tailgaters. If you are driving 70, thats clearly not fast enough for many people who come up quick out of the lanes just so they can get a few seconds ahead of you. Now, we did contact the Florida Department of transportation, and they say that 60 of the accidents along i4 in Hillsborough County alone are due to the behaviors that i just described. So definitely something to think about when you are driving along i4, everyone. Taking you back out live, you can see when you are out here probably on their phone texting, eating, or tailgating and driving quickly around you. Back to you. Our Team Coverage continues with garin flowers in tampa. Garin, we know the problem. The big question is, how in the world do we fix it . Reporter well, reggie, if you drive along i4 you know how dangerous it is from tampa to daytona. It should be a serious concern when you hear about this study. It cant feel good knowing that possibly be the deadliest. So talk about some of those solutions, there is three common denominators the study mentions. One of those is high traffic volumes. Something that you cant control. Also, a lack of distracted driving laws. Something that we need to push lawmakers on. The one thing in your control right now, risky driving behavior. Its pretty busy all year. All these for 20 years every day this way. I have traveled it for years and through the grace of god i made it through it, but i am not comfortable. The older i get, the first i am at driving it. Now that i think about it, yeah, you see a lot of texting going on. Thats everywhere. Garin flowers reporting for us live there. Now, we asked fdot about the study and that found i4 to be most dangerous. The Department Says it is still reviewing crash data but believes there are flaws in the study. Fdot says i4 runs through several large city and is packed with tourists so its not fair to compare longer highways. You can find the complete survey at wtsp.

Five people, including two children killed at this crash scene last night. It happened at 9 45 as one family drove home from church along mlk boulevard near the bypass canal.

So were a mom and her two children. Her family tells 10news the two other teenagers are in Critical Condition at tampa gen. Its not deja vu. Its happening again. A monkey is on the loose. So far we tracked him down as far north as hudson. According to reports of where he has been spotted, he is now making his way south. Our last missing monkey was found just a few years back. Phil, you are finding some similarities between these two cases . These monkeys are going wild . Reporter reg, yeah. We are here where the mystery monkey, tampa bays mystery monkey, was caught and captured. Wildlife experts tell me this new monkey probably came from the same place as the mystery monkey. They say it is, indeed, the same species and its almost exactly the same path as it makes its way south. I saw what i thought was a big cat sit on that seawall. I was up on my on the deck and i looked down and it moved. It started walking. When it started walking i said, no, thats not a cat. Reporter rick aikens snapped these photos wednesday morning in hudson. The last known sighting of the monkey, it kept coming down and testing the water, and then finally he jumped in and swam across. Reporter it turns out fish and wildlife was hot on the tail of this fugitive monkey because just minutes after aikens saw it swim across this canal fish and wildlife came up the canal in a boat looking for the monkey. By that time it had already scurried across this lawn, hopped the fence, and it was gone. They werent too far behind him. I dont think they ever caught him. I think the monkey was on a mission. It was heading south. Basically, he has ow give or take within a week to ten days, he will probably be in pinellas county. Reporter vernon yates was the biologist that tracked and ultimately rescued cornelius, the mental illnessry monkey of tampa bay in 2012. He suspects this monkey came from the same troop in Silver Springs and says the state needs to take notice. Its uncommon. Once a month we get calls. Sees one. Reporter this guy, i know he is cute, but if you see him do not try to feed him. Do not try to approach him. If you see this monkey, what you are supposed to do is call fish and wildlife. Even if the monkey takes off before they get there, they will at least get some location as to where he has been spotted. That will give them an idea as to where he has been and possibly where he is headed. Phil only in florida, huh . You know what . Colbert is going to have a field day with this. Just wait.

Was a rapper railroaded in Polk County Court critics question whether racism played a role in the sentencing of kevin gates, the 30yearold caught on camera kicking a fan in the face during a performance a little over a year ago. Gates was not only convicted by an allwhite jury, he was sentenced to six months in jail. 10news reporter eric glasser is asking the question, did the reporter imagine if every time someone threw a kick during a school brawl or one of those black friday blowouts that the people involved had to spend six months in jail. In that case, people will be locked up every day. Reporter on wednesday a polk county jury of six white women convicted rapper kevin gates of kicking a female who grabbed his pants twice during a lakeland concert in 2015. The judge sentencing the 30 yearold entertainer months hyped behind bars. Thats not necessary. Why would you have a jury of all white women . He shouldnt have got nothing. She touched him. Reporter it didnt take long for the internet to light up with similar comments. The subject of institutional racism even making its way into this years president ial campaign. Something is fundamentally broken when africanamericans are more likely to be arrested by police and sentenced to the same thing that whites do. Reporter the difference here, say legal experts, is that once Something Like this makes its way into the courtroom jurors have to follow the letter of the law. When he kicked her, thats a battery. Reporter tampa defense attorney eric taylor doesnt think he deserved six months, but taylor is also a former prosecutor. Given sentencing guidelines and gates past criminal record, the judge says taylor could have given gates a year. I dont see a element of race in the case. Repor question in taylors mind institution of racism is a big problem, but he feels in this case justice was colorblind. Eric glasser, 10news wtsp.
