A Handful of Safety! 🦃🖐️Our Arrive Alive campaign is back for the holiday travel season.

Beginning now through the end of the year, millions of drivers will take to Florida’s roads, and we are urging Floridians to not ‘wing it’ this year. So, to ensure you make it to the dinner table safely, let’s keep these five rules on hand:
🚫 Never Drive Impaired – Keep celebrations safe. Always arrange a sober driver, use a rideshare service, or count on AAA’s Tow to Go program.
🛑 Slow Down, Speed Kills – Heavy holiday traffic means delays. Be patient, slow down, and share the road.
🔧 Road Readiness – Give your vehicle a full check-up (tires, brakes, wipers, and fluids) before long road trips.
🤝 Buying & Selling Vehicles – Tracking down an end-of-year vehicle deal? Keep private sales secure by meeting at designated safe exchange zones.
🔒 Buckle Up – Your seatbelt is your absolute best defense. Ensure every passenger clicks theirs before moving.

Wherever your holiday travels take you between now and the end of the year, let's work together to Arrive Alive! 👉 Check out our full list of holiday travel tips, checklists, and resources at fhsmv.gov/holiday.

FHP Troopers, including members of the Quick Response Force (QRF), are actively responding in Central and South Florida, supporting flood response efforts through road closures, high-water rescues, and aerial overflights of impacted areas.

We want to REMIND motorist when encountering flooded roadways that the best practice is to TURN AROUND and seek an ALTERNATE route. Your life and your vehicle are not worth the risk. Stay alert, follow local advisories, and avoid driving through flooded areas.

It's that time of year again! Now through November 30, FHP is once again partnering with local food drive organizations to collect non-perishable food items to support families in need during the holidays. Florida, help us help you by 'Stuffing the Charger!'

The following are recommended items needed:
• Canned goods: Canned meats (ham, chicken, tuna), canned sweet potatoes, carrots, corn, green beans, canned fruits, etc.
• Dried goods: Stuffing, boxed potatoes, rice, cornbread mix, grits and oatmeal, etc.
• Other goods: Nuts, evaporated milk, broth, etc.

Individuals wishing to donate food can take their contributions to any local FHP station or contact your local PAO in their for more information. Visit FLHSMV.gov/StufftheCharger.

Yesterday, CAAT Troopers arrested Jean S. Dorisca, 48, who was wanted in Osceola County on a felony warrant for three counts of vehicular homicide stemming from a 2024 crash that killed three people, including his mother.

Dorisca, a Haitian national and lawful permanent resident of the United States, had been designated as one of FHP's most wanted fugitives after evading arrest following the July 16, 2024, fatal traffic crash where he allegedly attempted to pass a semi-truck in a designated no-passing zone and collided with oncoming traffic.

"For more than two years, this fugitive evaded accountability for a crash that claimed the lives of three innocent motorists. Thanks to the relentless work of our Criminal Alien Apprehension Team, Jean Dorisca has been taken into custody and will now face the criminal charges associated with this tragic crash,” said FLHSMV Executive Director Dave Kerner. “This arrest reflects FHP's unwavering commitment to protecting Florida's communities by locating and apprehending dangerous fugitives who threaten public safety and attempt to evade justice."
