A Florida-only focus for Florida super speeder offenses

Many law firms treat speeding tickets like paperwork. Florida’s dangerous excessive speeding cases demand more than that.

Regular speeding is often handled as a civil infraction. A Florida “super speeder” allegation, meaning dangerous excessive speeding, can be charged as a criminal offense. That changes everything, including where your case is handled, how quickly you need to respond, and what is at stake.

Florida also requires mandatory court appearances for certain serious traffic allegations, including speeding 30 mph or more over the limit. That means many high-speed tickets cannot be handled by simply paying online and moving on.

What Florida’s super speeder law covers

Florida’s dangerous excessive speeding law (F.S. 316.1922) targets extreme speed allegations, including:

• Driving 50 mph or more over the posted speed limit, or
• Driving 100 mph or more in a manner that threatens the safety of other people or property, or interferes with the operation of any vehicle

These are high-stakes cases because the state is not just asking for a fine. It may be pursuing a criminal conviction. 50+ mph over speeding charges are particularly severe and require knowledgable attorneys to defend against.

Penalties and driver’s license consequences

Every case is unique, but Florida’s statute sets out specific criminal penalties for dangerous excessive speeding.

In general, the law provides:

• First conviction: up to 30 days in jail, a fine of up to $500, or both
• Second or subsequent conviction: up to 90 days in jail, a fine of up to $1,000, or both
• License revocation risk: if a second or subsequent conviction occurs within 5 years of a prior conviction under the same statute, the court can revoke driving privileges for at least 180 days and up to 1 year

On top of statutory penalties, many drivers also worry about the real-world fallout, including insurance rate increases, employment issues (especially for professional drivers), and long-term record consequences.

Why a Florida super speeder ticket is different than a normal speeding ticket

A standard speeding citation can still be expensive and frustrating, but many drivers can resolve it without criminal exposure.

A dangerous excessive speeding case is different because it can involve:

• A criminal charge, not just a civil infraction
• Mandatory court process and tighter deadlines
• The possibility of jail time
• Higher fines and costs
• Driver’s license revocation exposure for repeat convictions
• A record that can follow you and affect insurance, work, and future background checks

Just as importantly, paying a ticket or entering a plea without a plan can lock in consequences you did not expect. The right first move is usually getting the right reckless driving defense in Florida is to ensure the citation is reviewed by a lawyer who handles Florida traffic and criminal traffic cases regularly.

How we defend Florida dangerous excessive speeding cases

Our defense strategy is built around evidence, procedure, and leverage. Depending on the facts, our work may include:

• Reviewing whether the traffic stop was lawful
• Challenging the speed measurement method (radar, laser, pacing, aircraft, or other techniques)
• Requesting calibration, accuracy, and maintenance records for speed detection devices
• Examining officer training, observation position, and traffic conditions
• Identifying legal and factual issues that support a reduction or dismissal
• Negotiating for non-criminal outcomes where possible, and preparing for trial when necessary

The goal is to protect your license, limit penalties, and avoid outcomes that can damage your future.
