Tampa is well known for the tactical use of special teams to conduct traffic stops near sporting events and bars.

The Channelside area will be the focus of the DUI Tampa traffic cops. Assume they watch and wait at parking lots, act on tips received by phone and other types of electronic messages. The police often receive tips to watch locations from phone calls, text messages, emails, letters, and photos. Furthermore, a former DUI specialist said during the final testimony as a Tampa law enforcement officer, “I get all kinds of stuff.”
Assume this is also the practice everywhere: Pinellas, Pasco, as well as Hillsborough counties in Florida. In addition, one DUI attorney has said if “there was a basis for the traffic stop and probable cause for the arrest, how or why an officer got involved in a DUI stop is irrelevant.” Be advised.
