Florida’s “super speeder” law hadn’t even finished its first chorus before a Buick Envision screamed past at 104 mph. Two minutes after midnight on July 1, deputies flipped the blues and made history—plus one very expensive example—for the state’s toughest new traffic statute.
Key Points
-
Record Timing: First violation booked 00:02 AM on launch day—talk about a hole-shot.
-
New Law: Drivers 50 mph over the limit or 100+ mph “in a threatening manner” now face stiffer fines and potential jail time.
-
Penalty Box: Our unnamed Florida Man left the scene in cuffs; his passenger Florida Woman scored a front-row seat to the show.
The sheriff’s office is already milking the moment on social, hoping fear of fresh fines will do what roadside billboards can’t—slow the Sunshine State’s lead-foot brigade.
