Founded in 1883, Downtown Historic Kissimmee, Florida, is small and quaint. It is only 5 blocks long. Being close to Disney World it is busy with tourists as well as locals.

In order to make the area safer for pedestrians, the city installed 3 speed humps (not speed bumps) to limit how fast cars go through. Drivers were tending to not pay attention to posted speed signs as they looked at the colorful buildings. After going over the first speed hump, people slow down. Speed humps are more rounded and smoother than a speed bump. The pictures for this panorama were purposely timed when cars were not going by. Believe me, it is busy.
