“The Florida Senate Transportation Committee unanimously approved a bill that would make certain street takeovers and vehicle stunts illegal in Florida.”

The 2022 measure prohibited specified acts associated with street takeovers and stunt driving. Contemporary reporting corroborated both the vote and the bill’s purpose.

“Florida Senate Bill 876 and Florida House Bill 399 would expand enforcement against street takeover and stunt-driving activities, including burnouts, doughnuts, drifting, and wheelies.”

Official legislative records confirm that the measures expanded Florida’s enforcement framework for street takeovers and associated stunt driving, expressly covering burnouts, doughnuts, drifting, and wheelies. The statutory definition applies when these maneuvers occur as part of a street takeover, rather than automatically covering every isolated instance.
