Is Florida a contributory negligence jurisdiction?

Advertisements [?]

I was just wondering, because if it is (and i have a hunch, as red states generally go- that it is) then i dont think that family of kids that got incincerated in that car accident has a prayer at recovery....

Here's the story if you missed it: http://www.cnn.com/2006/US/01/26/bus.crash/index.html

15 year old driving the van full of the kids probably rises to contributory negligence... no?
