SunPass Might Owe You Money Here’s Why
The State has recently announced that they will be withholding all payments to the vendor in charge of SunPass, the electronic toll system that manages transactions for many roads throughout Florida.

Did you get screwed over by the Sunpass screw up?
More specifically did you receive at least two automatic withdrawals from SunPass between June 11 and August 17? SunPass will reimburse anyone financially impacted by their bank’s overdraft fees caused by the posting of the backlog of toll transactions.

In 2017, 46% of speeding tickets were written in the “Big 6” counties Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach, Orange, Duval and Hillsborough. Not surprisingly, the most ticket volume comes from the most heavily populated and visited areas of the state. All of our data comes from the Annual Uniform Traffic Citation Report.
Since 2013, Broward county is responsible for writing the most speeding tickets in the state of Florida. In 2017, law enforcement agencies in Broward wrote 75,348 tickets for speeding 6% more than Miami-Dade which boasts the highest population. Miami-Dade drivers received 71,079 tickets last year.
Coming in third is Palm Beach County with 49,248 speeding tickets written in 2017. West Palm Beach is heavy on traffic enforcement motorcycle units and anyone in Palm Beach Gardens can tell you to watch out for frequent speed traps on PGA Boulevard.
Duval County accounts for the fourth largest portion of speeding tickets in Florida but might actually be the place you’re most likely to get a speeding ticket. It is the only county with a population less than a million yet it racks up a disproportionate amount of speeding tickets. Perhaps the difference comes from people who are travelling in or out of the state? Anyone who has taken I95 up to Georgia knows that FHP in the Jacksonville area gives out speeding tickets like candy 45,067 last year to be exact.
In 2017, 44,732 Speeding Tickets were written in Orange County Florida by the Highway Patrol, Police and Sheriffs combined. This makes it the fifth hotspot in Florida.

4 Useful Resources For Drivers Involved In an Accident
Traffic accidents have rose a staggering 77% in the state of Florida in just six years. As these stats grow with no relief in sight, we’ve compiled a list of helpful things that could be used in, after or during an accident situation that could lessen the impact or even save your life.
Call The Police, Then Call A Personal Injury Law Firm
In the aftermath of an accident, things can get hectic and confusing fast. If you are physically able to do so, follow these tips: first, slow down, and check to make sure your passengers and the other party’s passengers are OK. Then, immediately call the police. This protects you in several ways – the most important way being that the accident report will indicate whose fault the collision is.
That’s important because in order to receive compensation for your injuries by hiring a competent personal injury law firm , the accident must be shown to have not been your fault. Only the police report can do that for you!
Dashcams Don’t Lie
In many other countries, dashcams are much more commonplace to protect drivers against fraudsters and criminal activity. For example, in Russia almost every car has a camera. Having a camera rolling could help exonerate you in a situation where it’s your word against another driver. It could also document what happens if you are knocked unconscious and cannot remember the details of the incident.
The $15 Item That Will Save Your Life
According to the national highway agency and its 2011 report, in-vehicle drownings account for 2.1 percent of all Florida motor vehicle fatalities, twice the national average. While we cannot find a more recent report it’s our belief Florida still leads the nation given how often we see these stories in the news. It makes sense given the amount of rainfall Florida sees each year. Our roadways are lined with canals and many of our communities have lakes and ponds that can easily swallow a car. Vehicles can sink quickly and the outside pressure from the water makes it impossible open the doors. One way to increase your survival chances from this type of crash is to carry a carbide tipped hammer that can easily break auto glass. They’re only $15.
Onstar
Over the last 20 years, millions of cars have been equipped with Onstar a system that can automatically detect crashes and send emergency personal. In 2010, the company released stats that the system deployed paramedics 149,000 times when drivers were unresponsive and arguably saved their lives. Since accidents are becoming more common having this piece of mind is invaluable to some drivers.
