🚗 Aggressive Driving: Stay Safe, Stay Calm

Road rage can escalate quickly and put everyone on the road at risk. A moment of frustration can turn into a dangerous situation! Staying calm can make all the difference.

Water Rescue
Officers responded to Kelly Lake  after receiving report of a child swimming alone in the water.
When they couldn’t coax him to shore, #StPetePD Officer Jake Yancey entered the water with a floatation device and rescued him.
Glad everyone’s Ok!

Just because you don’t see us doesn’t mean we don’t see you 👀

One driver learned that after going 115 MPH in a 55 MPH zone before being stopped by our officers.

Speeding puts everyone at risk. Florida’s Super Speeder law carries serious penalties.

In case you forgot, there are "traffic control" signs out on the water indicating wake zones. These signs are in place to protect the environment and wildlife as well as infrastructure.

Here we show you what low speed minimum wake and idle speed should look like on your vessel.
