The abundance of police pulling people over on campus at night just looking to give them DUI's
It has come to my attention that it this is a very widespread issue around campus and many student are being affected by this. After doing a bit of researcher and asking around I have discovered that the overwhelming majority of students at ucf are afraid to drive on campus at night, intoxicated or not. The ucf police have began to crack down on drunk drivers on campus, but it seems as if they have gone to far. They are simply pulling everyone over they see for insigificant reasons and forcing them into doing a sobriety test. My friend andrew was driving home his two friends who lived on campus the other night and was pulled over as soon as he got onto campus. Since the people he has driving smelled of alcohol he was forced to do a sobriety test and was not able to pass it even though he was completely sober. Eventually, he was given a breathalizer and it was discovered he was sober and was allowed to go. The ucf people have it out for anyone driving on campus at night and it is affecting ucf students in a very negative way. People will shy away from going on campus at night even if it is for school related work. This is not all though, people are developing a stronger and stronger anger towards the ucf police and ucf in general and this hurts the moral of the school. It is clear that these supposively "random" stops are being taken to an extreme and they need to be monitored much closer by ucf for the sake of the students.
