Aggravated Fleeing or Attempting to Elude a Law Enforcement Officer

[thugkill3r]

State Is FLORIDA

Statute: http://www.flsenate.gov/statutes/ind...atuteYear=2003


Question: I was charged with this crime and in the arrest report it states that the officer needs to have his sirens and his lights on.. In my arrest report the officer clearly states he only had his lights on.. Does that mean I cannot be charged with this? Also it says in order to be charged with "Aggravated" you need to be at a high rate of speed.. The officer said "Approximately 100 mph" he didnt know the actual speed.. Thank you for your help guys.

The officer need only to have his emergency lights on. Your failure to yeild to them is why you were charged. And 100mph is clearly a high rate of speed when everyone else on the freeway is doing 25mph slower than that. And God forbid you were doing that in town.

If you read the statue then you would clearly see that it states the officer must have his lights and siren on...
