In Highlands County there were over 400 arrests for DUI last year. Most of those arrests were made by the Florida Highway Patrol. Highlands County is located within Troop F for the Florida Highway Patrol and aircraft details are conducted there at least once a month. Aircrafy speed enforcement involves a Trooper pilot who clocks vehicles between two white lines in the roadway. The pilot will call down to a trooper on the ground who will then pull the vehicle offer and issue a traffic citation.
Because of the rural nature of the county, the Florida Highway Patrol as well as the Sheriffs Office will often turn around on people and pull them over for speeding in the opposite direction. Those are radar cases and the officer needs to bring the proper calibration to court to substantiate the claim that you were speeding.
If you possess a commercial license (A, B, or C) please call our office immediately because you can no longer elect traffic school to keep the points off. There are other possiblities to keep the points off including court ordered traffic school or paying the fine after being ordered to by the court.
