Verified by Lenz ·

The Short Version

Official legislative records confirm that Florida’s Senate Transportation Committee approved SB 876 unanimously, with seven votes in favor and none opposed. The 2022 measure prohibited specified acts associated with street takeovers and stunt driving. Contemporary reporting corroborated both the vote and the bill’s purpose.

Caveats

  • The committee vote occurred on January 12, 2022; the claim describes a historical legislative action.
  • Committee approval advanced the measure but did not itself enact it into law.
  • The bill targeted specified conduct, not every activity broadly described as stunt driving.
