The Florida Highway Patrol will start using an unmanned marked patrol car placed in specific locations around the area to help deter traffic violations.
The patrol car will be parked in problem areas to help increase trooper visibility. Troopers will also conduct follow up patrols in those areas where the unmanned patrol car was placed
The times and places won’t be announced so the visibility will be more effective. Troopers say they hope it will have an effect in problem areas.
They say the empty patrol car you pass today may be manned by a state trooper tomorrow.
