| Probable cause affidavit: |
SUBMITTED BY: REYNOLDS, CONNARY 1267 (AR13-6107) \tDID, KNOWING HIS DRIVER'S LICENSE OR DRIVING PRIVILEGE HAD BEEN CANCELLED, SUSPENDED OR REVOKED, DRIVE A MOTOR VEHICLE UPON THE HIGHWAYS OF THIS STATE WHILE SUCH LICENSE OR PRIVILEGE WAS CANCELLED, IN VIOLATION OF FLORIDA STATUTE 322.34(2)(A). ON 061713, AS I WAS TRAVELING SOUTHBOUND ON HIGHWAY 19 IN THE AREA OF KINGS BAY DRIVE, I OBSERVED A RED FOUR DOOR GMC VEHICLE TRAVELING NORTHBOUND. SAID VEHICLE WAS TRAVELING AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED, WHERE THE POSTED SPEED LIMIT IN THIS AREA OF HIGHWAY 19 IS 40 MILES PER HOUR. I VISUALLY ESTIMATED THE VEHICLE TO BE TRAVELING AT A SPEED OF 55 MILES PER HOURS, AND ACTIVATED MY FRONT RADAR UNIT. UPON DOING SO, I OBTAINED A READING OF 57 MILES PER HOUR WITH A DOPPLER TONE TO MATCH. AT THAT TIME, I TURNED AROUND ON THE RED GMC VEHICLE AND ACTIVATED MY EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT. I THEN CONDUCTED A TRAFFIC STOP ON SAID VEHICLE, BEARING FLORIDA REGISTRATION, AFDR32. THE VEHICLE THEN PULLED OVER IN TO THE PARKING LOT OF THE CVS STORE LOCATED AT HIGHWAY 19/SR 44. I APPROACHED THE DRIVER AND REQUESTED HIS DRIVERâS REGISTRATION, DRIVERâS LICENSE AND PROOF OF INSURANCE. THE DRIVER THEN HANDED ME HIS FLORIDA DRIVERâS LICENSE WITH THE NAME OF MR MATTHEW WADE HANSON ON IT. MR HANSON ADVISED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS A RENTAL AND HANDED ME THE RENTAL AGREEMENT. I ADVISED MR HANSON THAT I HAD STOPPED HIM FOR SPEEDING AND RETURNED TO MY MARKED PATROL VEHICLE TO RUN A WANTS AND WARRANTS CHECK, ALONG WITH A DRIVERâS LICENSE CHECK ON THE DRIVER. I WAS SUBSEQUENTLY ADVISED THAT MR HANSONâS DRIVERâS LICENSE WAS NOT VALID AND DO NOT ISSUE A 30 DAY PERMIT. AN FCIC/NCIC REVEALED THAT MR HANSONâS DRIVERâS LICENSE WAS INDEFINITELY SUSPENDED ON 060613 FOR FAILURE TO PAY TRAFFIC FINES. I THEN RAN MR HANSONâS INFORMATION IN THE âDAVIDâ PROGRAM, WHICH REVEALED THAT HE HAD BEEN GIVEN NOTICE OF SUSPENSION ON 051613 FOR FAILURE TO PAY TRAFFIC FINES. I APPROACHED MR HANSON AND SPOKE WITH HIM ABOUT HIS SUSPENDED DRIVERâS LICENSE. HE ADVISED THAT HE KNEW THAT HIS DRIVERâS LICENSE WAS SUSPENDED. HE STATED HE HAD BEEN PULLED OVER APPROXIMATELY THREE WEEKS AGO, AT WHICH TIME HE WAS ADVISED THAT HIS DRIVERâS LICENSE WOULD BE SUSPENDED ON 060513. MR HANSON STATED THAT HE THOUGHT THAT HIS WIFE WAS GOING TO TAKE CARE OF THE TICKETS FOR HIM, AND HE DID NOT THINK TO CHECK AND MADE SURE THAT SHE HAD PAID THEM. MR HANSON HAD NO PAPERWORK STATING THAT HE HAD PAID THE CITATIONS, AND COULD NOT MAKE CONTACT WITH HIS WIFE AT THAT TIME. MR HANSON WAS THEN PLACED UNDER ARREST FOR DRIVING ON A SUSPENDED DRIVERâS LICENSE. HE WAS HANDCUFFED BEHIND HIS BACK, (DOUBLE LOCKED) SEARCHED AND SECURED IN THE REAR OF MY PATROL VEHICLE. PRIOR TO LEAVING SCENE, MR HANSON REQUESTED THAT HIS RENTAL VEHICLE BE LEFT IN THE CVS PARKING LOT. THE VEHICLE WAS THEN PROPERLY PARKED AND SECURED IN THE CVS PARKING LOT AND MR HANSON WAS TRANSPORTED TO THE CITRUS COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY FOR BOOKING AND PROCESSING. UPON ARRIVAL AT THE DETENTION FACILITY, DEFENDANT HANSON WAS ISSUED UNIFORM TRAFFIC CITATION, 4954-GZP (5), WITH A MANDATORY COURT DATE OF 071113 AT 1300 HOURS. HE WAS ALSO ISSUED WRITTEN WARNING, 368223 (B), FOR TRAVELING 57 MILES PER HOUR IN A POSTED 40 MILES PER HOUR ZONE. DEFENDANT HANSON SIGNED THE CITATION AND A COPY WAS LEFT WITH THE DETENTION STAFF TO GIVE TO THE DEFENDANT, WHO WAS EXPLAINED THE COURT DATE AND TIME AND ADVISED OF THE LOCATION. A COPY OF THE WRITTEN WARNING WAS ALSO LEFT WITH THE DETENTION STAFF TO GIVE TO DEFENDANT HANSON, WHOSE BOND WAS SET AT $500.00 PER THE BOND SCHEDULE. NO FURTHER ACTION BY THIS DEPUTY. |
