As of 2026, Florida’s “Super Speeder” law has transformed extreme speeding from a civil fine into a criminal misdemeanor. Pushing 100 mph or 50 mph over the limit now triggers mandatory court dates, potential jail time, and permanent criminal records that spike insurance rates by 40% or more. Definition: Florida Super Speeder In 2026, a…
If you are driving in the Sunshine State this year, the rules of the road have shifted significantly under your feet. As of January 2026, Florida has transitioned from a state that treats speeding as a minor “pay-and-forget” annoyance to one that enforces criminal penalties for heavy feet. The most critical update is the full…
Here’s the truth: ignoring a traffic ticket doesn’t make it disappear. It makes everything worse. If you fail to respond to the traffic ticket within 60 days of the issuance, fail to appear for any scheduled trial or fail to pay the fine imposed by the due date set by the court, the court will…
Canada knows if you have a DUI because Canadian Border Services Agency (CBSA) officers have direct, real-time access to the FBI’s National Crime Information Center (NCIC) database and the Canadian Police Information Centre (CPIC), which are linked to all federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies across the United States.

However, you just hit a critical milestone: you’re now eligible to apply for Criminal Rehabilitation, which provides permanent access to Canada. Alternatively, if you…
If you had a single DUI conviction 30 years ago that occurred BEFORE December 18, 2018, you are almost certainly eligible for deemed rehabilitation and can enter Canada without special permission—as long as you completed your entire sentence at least 10 years ago. However, Canadian border officers still have instant access to your decades-old conviction,…
If you had a single DUI conviction 10 years ago, you may be eligible to enter Canada under “deemed rehabilitation”—but only if your DUI occurred before December 18, 2018, AND at least 10 years have passed since you completed your ENTIRE sentence (not just your conviction date). This includes probation, fines, community service, license suspension,…
A DUI conviction makes you criminally inadmissible to Canada—meaning you can be denied entry at the border, even if your conviction is decades old. Since December 18, 2018, when Canada changed its impaired driving laws, even a single DUI is classified as “serious criminality” punishable by up to 10 years in prison. This means most…
