Welcome to

There are now 60 more pairs of eyes making sure you’re not speeding.

The Florida Highway Patrol graduated its 118th Basic Recruits class today. The troopers trained for 27 weeks to earn their badges. Governor Charlie Crist congratulated the graduating class.

“It’s your graduation, your recognition, your day of honor, for the sacrifices that you have made to be here today. To wear the black and tan, to wear this great uniform that so many respect, revere, and hold close, and when you come up in the review mirror, they really respect it,”

The graduation ceremony was held in Tallahassee, but the cadets are joining troops across the state.
