Actually seniorjudge it varies from state to state. Here in Texas it does not violate probation to get a ticket. Unfortunately for the OP I don't know the rules for Florida.

That's not completely true. It all depends on WHY the person is on probation and what type of ticket they receive.

If you are on probation for drag racing and get a speeding ticket, that's a violation.

DUI/Open container - violation

Drug Charges/paraphernalia - violation.

I could go on, but I'm sure you've got the idea.
