TODAY I JUST GOT A TRAFFIC CITATION FOR UNLAWFUL SPEEDING IN THE STATE OF FLORIDA... I WAS CITED SPEEDING 78 IN A 50. THE STATUTE THAT WAS USED WAS 316.189 2(b). IF IM UNDERSTANDING THE STATUTES AND LAWS CORRECTLY, FOR UNLAWFUL SPEEDING SHOULDNT I HAVE BEEN CITED WITH STATUTE 316.183 2? AND IF THIS IS TRUE, CAN I HAVE THE CASE DISMISSED DUE TO THE FACT THAT I HAVE THE WRONG STATUTE ON MY CITATION?

No. The Court will nicely amend the citation. They are kind that way...;)

BTW: Please don't post in all CAPS. :)

So how is your ticket a parking ticket or a non-moving violation? I must have missed something.
