This case is interesting. I would like to see how it plays out in court. I always found traffic statutes and traffic regulations to be highly complex. I won't pretend to know Florida traffic laws but if their traffic book is like Marylands its about 2 1/2 inchs thick. Once you find the regulation or law that you are looking up it references about five other statutes. And of course when you go to those references it references another. After a couple hours of looking all that up, then you need to find case law. Of course don't forget in many Federal cases and definitions are out there. I worked on a crash team for about 5 years. We handled fatal crashes and fly-outs. Some of my officers were real gurus with traffic laws and the reconstruction of crashes and even they would debate the interpretation of certain laws.
In my case if I wasn't certain about the issuance of a citation I would err on the side of the citizen. And the bottom line its gets to the opinion of the judge. Many of them will rule different ways with exactly the same evidence. This case is intersting
