The Traffic Stop that Didn't Need to Escalate

According to court records, on November 13, 2025 in Florida, an officer was driving an unmarked police truck on 18th Avenue when a woman in a Chevy Volt allegedly used the painted median to pass him. He said she was driving well over the posted speed limit, and while not in a designated school zone, there were several children in the area due to school recently being let out. He conducted a traffic stop and reported that the driver was verbally uncooperative with commands to turn off the vehicle and step out. Later, he'd say she tried to snatch the citation out of his hand while he was trying to explain the criminal notice to appear. ---------------------------------------------------------- Things the Narrator Likes Today Full Disclosure: As an Amazon Associate, PRA earns a commission from qualifying purchases made through the links below.
