Worried about a potential DUI stop in Florida? Here’s what you need to know: Keep your license and registration ready so you’re not fumbling—cops often twist that into a “sign of impairment.” If possible, record everything on your phone. Some law enforcement around here don’t use body cams, so creating your own evidence is key. Once the officer approaches, politely refuse to answer questions about where you’re going or how much you’ve had to drink—don’t give them ammo. You must step out of the car if asked, but you’re not required to do their field sobriety exercises. They’re voluntary. Remember, don’t argue or explain yourself roadside—you won’t change an officer’s mind, but you could damage your defense. Let an attorney fight the battle for you later.
